LEKTRONIC Show on Kiss FM, 28-Sel-23 | Frisson Solid Professor minimix + Commonground DJ Set

LEKTRK produces electronic music of different flavours and styles within the dance/house/tech music genre.

The LEKTRK sound is like a blast from the past with house and tech steroids packing serious production muscle.  Listening to LEKTRK is like taking trip back - but riding in a gleaming futuristic melodic spaceship. 

Between those acid vibes and tribal rhythms, beating furiously always where it’s darkest before light, sit those chunky tones, pounding deep into the recesses of your primal brain. It’s from these shadows where you might find Mike Clark (who heads up LEKTRK), a softly spoken London born, Melbourne bred techno producer and DJ who’s been consistently delivering some of the heaviest and darkest of selections for some time now. He’s not afraid to pay respect and homage to techno of the 2000s era, whilst managing to bring new dark and psy elements to his work. His meticulously crafted productions will occasionally send any-a-Berlin clubber from yester-year into a warm wave of nostalgia. 
LEKTRK has an ever-evolving style that can be heard in his music creation, but one fact remains, it is always relevant to the times. Priding himself on constantly pushing the boundaries and exploring the unknown, whilst also having a remarkable knack for replicating sounds that have been popular for generations. His releases tend to plot tricky yet coherent lines between techno, slick dark/bush tech, and progressive house. 
The first hit for LEKTRK was in 2018 with Tech House track "Storm" gaining huge attention locally in his hometown of Melbourne and has made a splash internationally, finding favour in many of the world's hottest clubs and reputable online radio. Since then, LEKTRK has had a string of Techno and Tech releases and notable collaborations, finding favour with clubs and DJ’s alike.
LEKTRK’s recent release on the mighty Senso imprint, “Bump”- is a chuggy club banger. This track has a pulsating baseline, an infectious thud guaranteed to cause your toes to tap and head to nod. This baseline is complemented with an assortment of grinding acid notes that are sprinkled throughout the track, laid in such a way as to give it a futuristic air. It's complex and dark enough to keep its edges sharp, yet versatile and groovy enough that it will get a run on any good Techno playlist. 
Mike also hosts a monthly radio show on Kiss FM Australia called ‘The LEKTRONIC Show’, showcasing and featuring new music and focusing on his favourite local/international artists and labels, having had notable guests of current and rising talent from Crescendoll, Frisson Records, LCK, Mavic Music, MexCalito, Tomchilla, Unknown Concept, to name a few.
