Blending a mixture of technical prowess with intuitive performance, Chris George has gone about carving out his niche in the Australian House & Techno scene, while breaking into the international circuit in 2023, playing in Berlin over the euro summer. 

With over 15 years of honing his craft, Chris has been a regular playing for many parties including S.A.S.H, Subtrakt, Buxton Records, Sessions, Refuge Recordings, Vos, Inner Circle, Arcadia Festival, SuperWhatNot, Warehouse 25 and Flux to name a few. 

Chris’s roots are from Durban, South Africa, growing up in a musical family led him to harness the fundamentals of DJing, turning his attention to the authentic tapestry of sounds unique to vinyl. Mentored by his father on this format he quickly learnt the strengths of both mediums - digital & analog - and this offered flexibility in his playing style. 

Branching out to further enhance his repertoire, Chris has since upped the ante to play alongside of internationals such as Fred P, Session Victim, Black Loops, Rich Nxt, Micheal James, DJ W!LD, Djebali, Osunlade, Detroit Techno Militia, Takashi Watanabe, Frits Wentink, Dana Ruh, Heiko Laux, Cesar Merveille, Echo Inspectors, Banoffee Pies and Berghain regular Claire Morgan. 

With releases on Buxton Records and Pocketmoth, Chris’s studio work has led to his productions ‘Love Vs. Pain’, a 3-track EP in 2015, ‘Gotas de Agua’ a 2-track EP in 2018, and ‘Synchronous’ a single, released in 2019. Chris started his own event alongside long time friend and DJ Jamie Grenenger, called Sessions, an ode to classic house music, with the aim to give artists a platform during covid. Chris is currently busy in the studio setting up his own record label, Pet Toys Records, more to come!
