After years of soul-searching around Melbourne's nightlife, techno enthusiast Josh Wain has channelled his focus towards DJing and has quickly become a sought-after music selector.

As one of the masterminds behind a few forward-thinking events – Autosea and Doppler, and North Melbourne hot-spot Yours&Mine – Wain aims to provide something different to the electronic music scene. 

His focus on delivering an original sound to the masses helped him land a warm-up slot at Carl Cox’s PURE, as well as warm-up and support for the likes of DVS1, Spencer Parker, Stephanie Sykes, Sven Weisemann and Detroit Techno Militia’s, T.Linder.

While he's performed across a variety of time slots, it's the early morning hours where Wain truly flourishes. With his distinct brand of high-octane techno, you can expect no chill during a Josh Wain set.

The random, unpredictable nature of modular synthesis forms the core elements of CTSD's tracks, with complex and unique sounds defining his style. Experimenting with unusual sounds with a focus on dance floor orientated techno is key to CTSD's sound.

His up coming release Parallel reveals influences of warehouse orientated techno in combination with his abrasive industrial hardcore roots. The hard hitting 3 track EP is set to be released on Johannesburg based label Occhiolism in May, closely followed by a single release on local label Nervous Afflication later in the year.

In addition to his productions CTSD has formerly co-run warehouse parties in Sydney under the brand “Front Left.” These events began as a direct result of the infamous Sydney lock out laws, and further tightened his focus on the industrial warehouse sound.
