Bio...
Alex Nott, aka "Rabbits on Saturn", is an underground techno artist who hails
from the industrial waste land of South London.

lead to a pursuit of hoarding wide range of genres and by the time he was 16,
he had an extensive vinyl collection for his home studio.
Rabbits has played at events Puzzle project, Cohesion, Zoology, Smash
Techno and Magnetix alongside London's finest DJs including Chris Liberator
and D.A.V.E the Drummer following a 2 year residency at the infamous 414

After making the move to Brisbane, Australia, he started organising parties
under the names BNE Techno, Escalation and Sonic Twitch.
In addition to this, he has also landed iconic guest slots and residencies on

each set a unique vibe.
With releases on Frisson Records, la Casa Roja (UK), Psy Cake Recordings
Domino FX, Space Cake Recordings and Sorta Kinda Music, his discography is
constantly expanding to new areas.

Bio..
“Azza Huasca has been spinning tracks since the late 90's, moving between PsyTrance, Techno and Breakbeat... These days, he throws down a viscous fluid mix of psychedelic/bush techno, weird and wonderful tripped out tech, and everything in between, weaving a sonic tapestry for the most discerning of earworms.. 
Azza has played everywhere from peak time sets on Paradiso, Subsonic Music Festival's spiritual home dance floor, sunsets on the beach in Tulum, Mexico and everywhere in between.. As no two sets are ever the same, Azza is sure keep everybody entranced as he navigates the dancefloor into an interstellar, multi-dimensional, organically tribal, techno music experience…”

Bio 👇

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 (a.k.a 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 2022 release on the mighty Senso imprint, “Bump”– is a chuggy club banger which gained a lot of attention on the international scene. 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. 

LETKRK has appeared on a growing list of top techno labels such as Senso, Shadow Wulf, Subios, Techgnogsis, AMW Black, Frisson, Mavic Music, and more. He has regularly headlined at local club, My Aeon for events such as ‘Techno Time’.

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 around the globe.
