PORTAL

Jason Evanko has been promoting, producing and performing live electronic music since the mid 90's when he handled synth/sample/tape loop duties for the Pittsburgh based, New Beat-charged EBM duo Fetish in the Sweatbox. After exiting FSB in late 1998 and under the THUMPTEK moniker, he became focused on producing live, non-stop Techno and Acid that had the ebb, flow and fluidity of a DJ set but was largely impromptu and created with hardware drum machines, synthesizers, samplers and effects.

Throughout the 2000's. Jason began working with House of Styles Productions and held a Live PA residency @ Pittsburgh's weekly techno showcase 'Electrasoul', which featured local, national and international Techno artists that ranged in style from the Tech House of Mr. C to the Detroit Ghetto Tech of Disco D.  When HOS dissolved and it's founders relocated, Jason and the remaining “Electrasoul Crew” continued throwing the weekly Techno nite as well as many one-off raves and free outlaw parties. In 2009 he relocated to the mountains of Colorado, but maintained ties with Pittsburgh producer Josh Christopher, who along with Jason started the “Acid Emporium” label as an outlet for their Acid House and Techno productions in 2014.   These releases range from the groovy Acid House vibe of Cyclotron, to the unapologetic raw Techno of Recreation Technician and are all recorded live and direct.

I took the decks in 1995 during the vibrant years of the Midwest Rave scene.
After moving to Cleveland in 2000, I was given the opportunity to become a resident at Mercury Lounge and Twist Social Club from 2000-2010.

In 2016, I was looking for an creative outlet and founded Cleveland Week:ender, a series meant to create an immersive underground party experience. 

As a producer, I strive to write music that I can play, nothing else. Deep and atmospheric, yet driving and energetic.
