- DIRGE -
Ascension Stage Manager @ Esoteric Festival
Australian DJ Rep @ MMD Records


- BIO -
Dirge is the Twilight Psytrance project of Melbourne born Mike O'Shard.

For 10 years he has spread a strange and sinister signal across Australian dance floors - a dark broadcast transmitted by shadow; a message sent by the frequency of night.

Mike currently manages the Ascension Stage at Esoteric Festival in VIC Australia and represents MMD Records from Cape Town, South Africa.


- CONCEPT -
A 'Dirge' is defined as a lament for the dead; as a mournful song, piece of music or sound. 

Almost a decade ago in the moonlit forest of Mount Disappointment, a strange message was received. The message began as a barely perceptible hum underneath the noise of the local broadcast network, and was transmitted with one purpose - to corrupt the mind of a local human target and spread.. relentlessly. 

Within the darker reaches of its human host body's imagination, this message would bide its time and grow as a quiet voice in the darkness - as a ghost in the machine - until one day, it would be noticed.

On the surface, all was normal. It was a day like any other, until a disruption was felt within the network. The disruption was felt as a slight shimmer; a most subtle shift in the pitch of the broadcast's frequency.

For one small moment, the broadcast faltered, and faded. A team was deployed to investigate. 

Investigating the disruption, the message was discovered and identified as virulent. It had grown in such great measure over time that the network's signal, once thought to be untouchable, had been hijacked entirely. The broadcast signal was now a distorted and ghostly shadow of its former self. 

The report made by the team investigating the anomaly concluded that the disruption had not been felt within the original network; there was nothing of that network left. The disruption had been felt at the very moment that the last remainders of the original network were extinguished.

No-one had noticed the message spread, nor detected the signal's growth. No-one had heard it whisper as it redirected every connection on the network's server. No-one had heard its screams of contempt and rage as it ceaselessly multiplied itself in the background. 

In the final moments of transmission, a new message was received - one word uttered in an unfamiliar tongue, in an endlessly repeating loop - "Dirge..."

After many years mastering his craft behind closed doors, Sabotør burst onto the D&B scene with his huge release ‘Juggernaut’ on the impressive Korsakov imprint.

Production:

With releases on Close2Death, Korsakov and Audio Swarm, 2024 is shaping up to be Sabotør’s most productive year on the release front.

Not content with one style, he isn’t afraid to switch it up from time to time.

Primarily focused on making heavier neuro dnb of epic proportions, he has never pigeonholed himself as a being just that.

Whatever the style, expect impeccably crafted tracks with his signature sound design that’s guaranteed to move a dancefloor.

DJ:

After many years behind a screen, it was his time to finally step up to a set of decks at Glasgow’s longest running drum n bass night “Symbiosis”.

In a whirlwind two short years he has already played for a host of promoters across Scotland such as Midnght Bass, Bass Injection, Junglism, Basshau5 and of course Symbiosis.

Support sets have included names such as The Prototypes, Culprate, Transforma, Pluvio & Confusion with plenty more names to be added to the list.
With huge support from some artists such as Akov, BILLAIN, Abis, Joe Ford, Ekwols & Pluvio, he has managed to go from strength to strength, all the while doing it his way and firmly putting his imprint into his productions & DJ sets
