@somerleds is a selector and DJ hailing from Wellington, New Zealand.

He first got turned on to electronic music in the very early 1990s when passed a UK hardcore cassette in the halls of Wellington College. He then immersed himself in all things electronic seeking out warehouse raves and outdoor festivals where futuristic soundscapes from Goa trance to German techno were unleashed upon the ravers.

Somerled's influences have evolved from these early days to now include anything on the spectrum of electronica from acid house to progressive trance to drum and bass. With many up and coming producers re-framing the original sounds of the 90s with vastly improved production tools and techniques, Somerled is now inspired to go back to his roots and mix tracks close to his heart.

Direct from the Paradise Lounge (previously the infamous Pit Bar) in Wellington, New Zealand, Somerled blends all forms of electronica across the spectrum.
