Ondrej Blatny’s journey into electronic music began in the mid-1990s, when as a teenager he was captivated by The Prodigy, Underworld, Kraftwerk, the legendary Thunderdome compilations, and the 2Step TV show on VIVA Zwei. Techno and jungle quickly became his greatest inspirations.
By the age of 15, Ondrej had mastered Technics turntables and, under the alias DJ Shade, started performing in clubs across the Czech Republic. His sets, rooted in jungle and drum & bass, stood out for their raw, hard-edged energy infused with techno influences.
In 2006 he launched the project Gasmask71, shifting his focus to production. His intense tracks were released on labels such as BlackHoe, Mindsaw, Hard & Louder, Order in Kaos, and Blast Furnace Recordings, with standout releases like The Prophecy and Pipeline. Touring relentlessly across Czechia and abroad, he established himself on the drum & bass circuit and became part of collectives including Cyberfire and later Hoofbeats.
By 2014, Ondrej closed the Gasmask71 chapter and founded his new project Modetech, while continuing to perform with Hoofbeats. Although drum & bass remained central to his career for years, his love for techno never faded, and he occasionally appeared at events dedicated to the genre.
In 2024, he made a decisive move: stepping away from drum & bass entirely to dedicate himself exclusively to techno. Seeking independence and a fresh creative chapter, he drew inspiration from artists such as Surgeon, Industrialyzer, Richie Hawtin, The Advent, Regis, Luke Slater, and Rumenige—channelling their influence into hypnotic grooves and industrial textures.
By 2025, Modetech had released several EPs, and his distinctive industrial-driven sound is already beginning to attract a growing audience.
Modetech moves forward with clarity, determination, and a renewed passion for techno.
