House and techno are all about tension and release, the parallel between light and dark. Perhaps no other DJ knows this better than Sydney's own Deepchild. His sound is endlessly immersive, but he's also not afraid to get tough, groovy, or downright funky. Press play and get transported from the inky interiors of Berghain to the stark machine landscapes of Detroit.

Club 77 Live: Deepchild

A self-taught musician, he learnt his trade as a DJ on a pair of Soundlabs back in the '90s and with 20 years of music knowledge under his belt. His encyclopedic house sets are as educated as they come.

A well-connected, amicable guy who always lets the music do the talking, James has amassed countless friends on the UK dance scene over the years, helping to throw parties and linking up with leading industry figures at the world's most important club events.

A lover of music for the right reasons, he prides himself on being a versatile DJ who can read a dancefloor and control a crowd any time of day or night. A master of sexy yet earthy percussive grooves, he's as careful to please a dancefloor as he is of preserving his own values as a renowned vibe creator.

“I want to make others feel the way I feel when listening or playing music. Witness the satisfaction people have through my judgement of music,” said James when asked about his love of DJing.

Keep your eyes and ears peels for a string of releases over the coming months...

In Da Groove w/ James Puentes + Maran.L.O - 26.01.23

Next Up on the podcast we welcome Tom2Trax who has been a regular at the helm of the Ebloc decks for some time now. An energetic blend of uplifting rhythms touching on Bumpy tech house,  rolling percussive tribalism and feel-good crescendos, we're mega happy with how this one turned out and we're hoping you are too.

A couple of words from the man himself :

"I went for a mix of Detroit sounding house and techno, golden-era UK tech house (the good stuff) and the some funky, percussive, energetic techno. A few dusty gems I’ve been digging over the last few years, as well as some recent cuts. I feel like this mix really sums up my DJ style and is what I’d usually play at my ALLTRAX events at Eastern Bloc."

EBR Podcast 060 - Tom2Trax

From London to LA, @laalls has always had a taste for the dancefloor. Fully immersing herself in both cities, the underground music scenes have shaped her as a person, whether it's the inspiring friends she made along the way, the clubs and festivals she experienced or the new sounds she was exposed to, LAALLS has always had a deep passion to drive the culture forward. An admirer of the art of DJing and an ear to the ground, it wasn’t until LAALLS moved to LA in 2019 that she got to grips with the craft and found another way to share music on a bigger scale. Her DJ sets are reflective of her years of influence ranging from House, Acid House, Techno, to UK Garage, Drum & Bass, Jungle, Breakbeat, and everything in between. 

We're filled with joy to have LAALLS join us to commemorate our mix number 20 on the 20th! ✳️
