After delivering a series of impactful remixes for his Modwerks camp, Ø [Phase] delivers yet four more solo productions that showcase the veteran producer's timeless signature of groove minimalism. Continuing his exploration of classic, refined, industrial techno, Ø [Phase] reaffirms his position as a maestro, blending looped-up elements with a contemporary touch, offering a compelling sonic experience for the modern day and old school techno lover. Dabbling in some acid on "Plot Twist" with claps to make Robert Hood jealous, techno above the 140bpm tempo never sounded so groovy.

Ø [Phase] has been a driving force in techno for over two decades, leading the movement with his prototypical, stripped-back sound. Since cutting his teeth at Sony Music London as a mastering engineer in the late ’90s, he’s paved his way unapologetically, often challenging audiences in his relentless pursuit of pure artistry. His stark tracks exude an unbiased confidence that effortlessly commands the dance floor, ripening into quintessential classics. At a deeper glance, his music reveals an unseen complexity that seems to defy time and space—meticulously arranged and fervently produced with technical mastery.

Initially debuting on Steve Bicknell’s Cosmic Records, he became the principal artist of Token Records, eventually launching his own Modwerks label. Besides a steady stream of critically acclaimed releases under his solo moniker, Ø [Phase]’s expansive projects include ongoing collaborations with Luke Slater as Roog Unit and Phyxix alongside Matrixxman. He’s co-produced iconic tracks with UK legends Underworld and crafted definitive remixes for the likes of Robert Hood, Scuba, and Rødhåd, but his momentum won’t stop there. Catch him touring extensively, headlining events at ADE, Berghain, Dekmantel, Fabric, and diverse cities across the globe. Ø [Phase] maintains his position at the forefront of techno innovation, continually redefining the essence of underground music.

I’m a gardener by trade and a DJ by passion. I started learning to DJ at 14, and now at 38, I’m finally putting my sound out there—recording sets, producing original tracks, and sharing my journey online.

The goal? To cultivate a lifestyle where music and nature meet. It’s all about rhythm, growth, and staying true to my roots. 

Dig deep, play bold!
