SOLSTICE

☯️ ~  Doc.      
☯️ ~  Bastard Squad Records Inc.        
☯️ ~  Dense Nebula Records (DJ)

The genre defying rule breaker from way back ...
DEEP! up the Wairoa Gorge(nelson) ... 19 years of age ..
A young Sam Claasen found himself @  Alien Nation outdoor music festival... 
3days & 3nights later.. this eye opening & Soul defining experience would change Sam's life forever. Immersion very quickly went deeper into this world 🌍 and it was not long before he found his place was intended for the other side of the decks 
and thus began.....  Doc. 
Doc.'s first electronic endeavours were made through early prehistoric forms of midi controllers & first generation CDJz ....
Tasman Bush Tech.
Doc. first started forming his foundation of Sound from his loves for the Proggy chunk and underground Psytrance  and of course the tasty Bush Tech tunes too.
Big Kiwi influences early on were - Grouch, Cosm, Flaxnation, Dawnbeaver.
some say around 2011 Doc. vanished..
Others say he just went off the Radar..
the real story .... 
Doc... was tricked into becoming an Adult..
And for a period of Time Doc. disappeared...

This time Doc. returns for good.
With his Unique Batch Blended Bass Benders of Deep Minimal Tasman Bush Tech... 
 Feeding the Fiesty Souls of the Fine & Feral Festival Fashionistas of beautiful Aotearoa.   

☯️🔥☯️
Doc. Is a unique experience.
An evolving audible adventure of
Recycling, Reshaping and Reforming Sound.
