Co-Founder / 909 Production
Co-Owner / EXTIMA Records

 Kicking off his DJ career in 2002, Junior has become one of the defining figures of Turkey’s electronic music scene. After winning the Miller Music Factory Contest in 2009, he established himself with powerful, hypnotic techno and tech-house sets that earned him recognition across Istanbul’s nightlife.

In 2020, he revived 909 Production, a label and platform he owns, strengthening his role as a driving force in Turkey’s underground culture. He is also a partner of EXTIMA Records, while holding a central role at Klein Phönix — not only as a resident DJ, but also as stage manager.

His iconic closing ritual sets at Klein Phönix have become a trademark of Istanbul’s techno nightlife. On the production side, Junior has released standout tracks such as Galactic Empire, Operation Cancelled, Feel the Vibration, Power, and Mystical Dynamic. These productions stayed on the Beatport charts for an extended period, receiving strong international support and solidifying his reputation as a producer.

He has shared the stage with world-renowned artists including Eric Prydz, Pan-Pot, Enrico Sangiuliano, Joris Voorn, Stephan Bodzin, Anfisa Letyago, Joyhauser, Victor Ruiz, Sama Abdulhadi, Dixon & Âme, Rafael Cerato, Matador, Mauro Picotto, Dave Clarke, Radio Slave, Sasha, Paco Osuna, Township Rebellion, Christian Craken, Phoenix Movement, NoNameLeft,  Anna Reusch, and Milo Spykers.

Beyond Turkey, Junior has performed at numerous international festivals and events, further extending his global presence.

Through his YouTube channel, Instagram, and Resident Advisor profile, Junior (TR) continues to expand his influence as both an artist and label owner, representing Istanbul’s techno culture on the international stage.
