8Trak Guest Mix- Prog in a Sock


Rj Banks is a music producer and DJ based in Queensland, originally from Melbourne, where his love for sound took root while working behind the scenes at a production company. Now he's the one behind the decks, crafting hypnotic journeys through Dark Minimal Techno and Psy-tech—think driving low-end grooves, eerie atmospheres, and just the right amount of weird to keep your brain buzzing.

His debut solo track, State of Mind, hit over 40,000 plays on SoundCloud, connecting with listeners across the globe and proving that Rj isn’t just making noise—he’s making waves.

With releases on underground labels like Frisson Records and Friendly Critters, his sound continues to evolve, always aiming for that sweet spot between deep, dark, and danceable.

When he’s not bending minds on the dancefloor, he’s hosting the much-loved Prog in a Sock mix series for Frisson Records, curating deep and twisted selections from some of the best DJs in Australia and beyond.

Oortek’s (Ex. DAS BOOT) focus lies on the exploration of progressive, dark minimal and driving techno, and its synthesis with ethereal melodic elements and alien, otherworldly sounding psychedelika. Driven by curiosity and a fascination with the unknown, she seeks to fully embrace the creative process and delivers intelligently crafted sets that draw the audience in. Through the transmission of enticing auditory landscapes interspersed with unorthodox twists and turns, her DJ sets serve as an antidote to the stale and ordinary.

Oortek grew up in the inner city environments of Western Germany, where her fascination with house and techno sounds first developed. After moving to Australia in 2013, she quickly discovered the underground music scene and refined her interest through continuous engagement with the community.  Oortek performed her DJ debut in July 2023, and has since played at a number of events held by Brisbane based organisers including Diffuszed Studios, Misheen Productions and Wizards of Kingston.

Amante da música eletrônica do techno ao trance

From the digital shadows of Sydney's underground, one artist architects the future of sound. Years engineering sound systems forged an understanding of how technology breathes life into raw frequencies—this isn't just mixing, it's neural programming.

The awakening came in Europe's industrial cathedrals. Berlin's underground temples. Milano's neon nights. Now those frequencies find new expression across Sydney's warehouse circuits, transforming spaces into temporal anomalies where the bassline becomes your nervous system's new operating code.

This is sound for the connected generation—minds that understand the future is already here, pulsing at 140 BPM in the city's electronic underbelly.

Neural pathways synced. Welcome to the frequency.

An open-minded , forward thinking electronic music label where we demand quality and encourage creativity... dark progressive,  psychedelic techno , powerful dark grooves , primal and a little nasty dance floor rhythms.  Enter the portal of dark underground soundscapes with our sonic sorcerers and audio enigmas...
