Gav Whitehouse / FIRE / Out now on Circa Trax

My name is Reza Karkouti and I am just a 50 year old single father of two young beautiful kids who got inspired by the European and Latin underground tech house  and I only dj at home.  

This music saved me during an extremely difficult time in my life and the underground community showered me with so much love and inspiration to not only thrive again in my life but to DJ this underground music to inspire others to fall in love with it like I did.  

All your comments on @SoundCloud means the world to me 😭😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This has nothing to do with me and everything to do with the music and the producers who have dedicated their lives producing these amazing tracks so I can DJ them and share their gift with the world. And I always feel honored when I play these tracks from these producers which most of them are my friends. I am just the messenger and nothing more.

My heart and soul is in international underground tech house aka European & Latin underground tech house.  These tracks have a very distinct percussion & highs signature not found in any other genre.  These tracks are impossible to find with average of 500 hits on youtube and a big hit being around 1.5k hits on youtube.  Only Djs and fans of this underground community know and understand this music.  

This music is not made for clubs with table service and VIP lines,....it's made purely for music lovers.  In this underground community the Djs and producers promote each other more than the fans.   I hope I inspire you to open up your heart and ears to this very rare and beautiful hypnotic music called European & Latin Tech House.  

DJing is not about gigs and glamour shots. 

Music is about connecting with that one soul in the back of the room and inspiring him to be a better human being. ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for all your support and I love each and every one of you 🫶

Esta música me salvó durante un momento extremadamente difícil de mi vida y la comunidad underground me colmó de tanto amor e inspiración no solo para prosperar de nuevo en mi vida, sino también para pinchar esta música underground para inspirar a otros a enamorarse de ella como yo. .

Ahora dediqué mi vida a ser el mejor DJ posible y a difundir el sonido y el amor por el tech house clandestino queriendo inspirar a otros a amar esta música eufórica como yo ♥️♥️♥️

Todos sus comentarios en @SoundCloud significan mucho para mí 😭😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Esto no tiene nada que ver conmigo y tiene todo que ver con la música y los productores que han dedicado sus vidas a producir estas increíbles pistas para que yo pueda pincharlas y compartir su regalo con el mundo. Y siempre me siento honrado cuando toco estas pistas de estos productores, la mayoría de los cuales son mis amigos. Solo soy el mensajero y nada más.

Mi corazón y mi alma están en el tech house underground internacional, también conocido como tech house underground europeo y latino. Estas pistas tienen una firma de percusión y agudos muy distinta que no se encuentra en ningún otro género. Estas pistas son imposibles de encontrar con un promedio de 500 visitas en youtube y un gran éxito de alrededor de 1,500 visitas en youtube. Solo los Djs y fans de esta comunidad underground conocen y entienden esta música.

Esta música no está hecha para clubes con servicio de mesa y filas VIP,... está hecha puramente para amantes de la música. En esta comunidad underground los Djs y productores se promocionan más unos a otros que a los fans. Espero inspirarte para que abras tu corazón y tu alma a esta música hipnótica muy rara y hermosa llamada European & Latin Tech House.

Ser DJ no se trata de conciertos y tomas de glamour.

La música se trata de conectarse con esa alma en el fondo de la sala e inspirarlo a ser un mejor ser humano. ♥️♥️♥️

Gracias por todo su apoyo y los amo a todos y cada uno de ustedes 🫶

BEFORE EDM THERE WAS EBM 😉

I am breathing electronic music since late 70s and that's over 45 years now. From Kraftwerk, Jean Michel Jarre, Mike Oldfield, Depeche Mode, Erasure, Yazoo, Alphaville, Men without Hats, Nitzer Ebb, Die Krupps, Front 242, Anne Clark, Camouflage, Gary Numan, OMD, Apopytygma Berzerk and even the Commodore 64 demo & break dance scene to more contemporary Electronic music artists, I witnessed the evolution of Electronic music, which basically means I am an old fart and consider myself an authority in this music genre 😵 Currently I listen DnB almost exclusively. But I do not like to restrict myself at all, enjoying flavors like Electronica, Trance, Psytrance, Tech House, Dubstep, Deep House, Future Pop, Trap, Techno, UK Bass and of course EBM/Industrial as well.

What you will find in my likes and playlists is the top of the crop in Electronic Music, I will  absolutely not list any bullshit. A track I have not listed might be just that: Bullshit, just mediocre or an artistic gem which I haven't discovered yet.

In the last Fifteen years  that British-born producer, promoter and DJ Gav Whitehouse has called Melbourne home, he has become a driving force in shaping the city’s infamous electronic music scene, with his adopted home as is his inspiration and muse.
Getting his hands on his first pair of turntables in the late 90s in the north of England, like most fledgling DJs, Gav first cut his teeth on harder styles. Always ready to go one better, DJing alone was not enough. His first ever event, Rotation which he ran for 4 years would eventually become the official afterparty for hard dance juggernaut Goodgreef in Preston. He later packed up and imported the event, alon in Australia in 2008, where his love affair with house and techno truly blossomed. Always pushing boundaries, it didn’t take him long to break into the close-knit scene. He commandeered One Six Ones’s notorious rooftop for three years with his Digital Sunset soirees of House with live vocalists. Always a pioneer, he even brought UK Garage legend DJ EZ over for a one-off gig back in 2015. With bold ideas and eclectic sets, the boy from the north of England quickly made a name for himself with weekly gigs at Melbourne’s best clubs including Circus, New Guernica and running his own event Frequency at Revolver for 3 years. 

Gav has also become a regular on the Victorian festival circuit, warming up for Audio Jack at Maitreya, Playing the Killing Team/Eat the Beat stage at Babylon and the Mono Loco stage at Rainbow Serpent. He also added Carl Cox’s Pure festival to his impressive repertoire back in 2021 and 2023.

Gav’s weekly residency for elite House and Techno crew Eat the Beat at New Guernica has recently seen him signed as a full-time artist, catapulting an already illustrious career into even more gigs across Australia and overseas. Supporting acts such as the Martinez Brothers, Paco Osuna, Alan Fitzpatrick , Whebba , Luigi Madonna and Adreas Campo he’s also played alongside the Balearic best at Café Del Mar in Ibiza. 

Ten epic years as a producer have seen Gav’s tracks signed to labels such as Shodan Records ,Roush, Catwash , King Street Sounds of New York and 303 Lovers. His distinctive, dancefloor-ready cuts stem from House to Techno always experimenting with different drum patterns on the Roland tr8s and various hardware and software synths. A combination of technical skill underpinned with passion is the winning formula for Gav.

The dancefloor is the driving force for everything he does, whose art thrives in the deep roots of Melbourne’s collaborative scene, a city he believes shines brighter because of its popular musical diversity. Over the last year Gav has reunited with Brian Smith an old friend from the UK who got him started in the scene back in the late 90s and who influenced Gav buying Brian's technic turntables. They have now created a duo "STATE-2" and have forthcoming tracks signed with Renesanz ,Red Channel, Prospect and Bush Records ready to be released from April this year. In 2024 he plans to raise the bar playing with Eat the Beat at events planned in Fiji, Bali and Amsterdam for ADE festival.
