Liquid Drum and Bass / Deep House / Tech House / Lounge / Chill / Ambient / Jazz Fusion and whatever else emanating living energy. Wooo!!! "No romance, just wanna dance" 

Resident DJ at Rude (now Ruder) in Oldham.
Lover of House Music (and most music in fact!) since childhood. Been DJ’ing on & off since about ‘94

The very best music and mixes from Soul Heaven.

Etharix is the alias of Taralynn (she/her) — a DJ, community connector, and Sonic Storyteller behind the decks. Born and raised in Rochester, NY, and shaped by her years in Austin, TX, and now living in North Carolina since 2012, Taralynn has spent her life surrounded by sound, sub•culture, and a deep love for underground Electronic Music.

Her sound as Etharix lives in the liminal space between movement and reflection — curating journeys through Liquid Drum & Bass, ambient textures, and deep, rolling bass-lines that capture the stillness of 3am thoughts and the gravity of introspective dance floors. Through her various ‘Liquid’ titled mix series, she channels a late-night energy meant for long drives, quiet headphones, deep conversations, the bedroom, or the afterglow of a good night out — sonic offerings for those who feel most alive when the world slows down.

The name Etharix was chosen with intention: a blend of Eth—UH—Rix = As in Ethereal + Matrix 

The —Etha (—UH) part of her name, which hints at an otherworldly, immersive vibe that reflects the deep ambient soundscapes that she creates. from the word ‘Ethereal’ and mystique, which is derived from the definition of the word ‘Matrix’, it represents a personal transformation and a deeper commitment to music as both art and emotional resonance. 

The —rix” the ending of the name ‘Etharix’ adds a sharp, futuristic edge — which suggests mastery and innovation in my techniques. Which,  I always continue to consistently work on as I create each mix. My personal goal is always to make consistent progress in the technical areas of creating mixes and / or eventually learning to produce music as well.

In addition to DJing, Taralynn is also the founder and driving force behind Sub Low Triangle — an Electronic Music event promotion platform serving the Triangle area of North Carolina and beyond. While she doesn’t currently throw events herself, she uplifts and amplifies the work of others — connecting people, scenes, and sounds. Sub Low Triangle is her way of giving back to the community she loves, making it easier for people to find the music, spaces, and each other.

Whether behind the decks as Etharix, behind the scenes with Sub Low Triangle, or simply dancing in the crowd, Taralynn moves with intention, care, and deep respect for the music that moves us all.
