Ø [Phase] has been a driving force in techno for over two decades, leading the movement with his prototypical, stripped-back sound. Since cutting his teeth at Sony Music London as a mastering engineer in the late ’90s, he’s paved his way unapologetically, often challenging audiences in his relentless pursuit of pure artistry. His stark tracks exude an unbiased confidence that effortlessly commands the dance floor, ripening into quintessential classics. At a deeper glance, his music reveals an unseen complexity that seems to defy time and space—meticulously arranged and fervently produced with technical mastery.

Initially debuting on Steve Bicknell’s Cosmic Records, he became the principal artist of Token Records, eventually launching his own Modwerks label. Besides a steady stream of critically acclaimed releases under his solo moniker, Ø [Phase]’s expansive projects include ongoing collaborations with Luke Slater as Roog Unit and Phyxix alongside Matrixxman. He’s co-produced iconic tracks with UK legends Underworld and crafted definitive remixes for the likes of Robert Hood, Scuba, and Rødhåd, but his momentum won’t stop there. Catch him touring extensively, headlining events at ADE, Berghain, Dekmantel, Fabric, and diverse cities across the globe. Ø [Phase] maintains his position at the forefront of techno innovation, continually redefining the essence of underground music.

A Budapest-based collective of like-minded artists, with Techno as a vision in focus.

Gaetano Parisio from Napoli, Italy is one of the most consistent artists in techno, contributing to the late-90s hard groove scene by releasing records that became staples in every respectable DJ’s record box while working with frequent collaborator Marco Carola to hoist the Napolitano sound into the spotlight. Following a decade away from the spotlight (though never the studio), he has re-emerged with new collaborations as well as digital reissues of his classic catalog, setting the stage for a new GAETEK LIVE show that will introduce his 25 years of timeless music to techno’s next generation.

Bio:

Growing up in the mid 90’s rave scene in Nelson, New Zealand, Juan became hooked on the sounds of Hardcore, and then found his soul in the form of Jungle and D&B. He then amassed a formidable vinyl collection and subsequently DJ’d around NZ in clubs such as Bath St in Dunedin, and the infamous Fu Bar in Auckland.

His subsequent move into production saw several D&B/170bpm tunes released under the ‘Tellez’ moniker, yet it was an experiment into the techno genre around 10 years ago which prompted an entire musical shift into the current 4/4 output of ‘Juan Tellez’. His versatility as a DJ and producer sees him playing and producing across the spectrum of techno (and occasionally minimal/tech), usually leaning towards a darker yet uplifting, atmospheric and grittier sound.

Based in Melbourne since 2013, Juan has found his Australian techno home on the highly regarded Machine label and performed regularly in clubs and festivals around Australia, New Zealand and overseas. Select events include Rainbow Serpent Festival, Dragon Dreaming Festival, Luminate Festival, End of the Line, and Off the Radar, as well as numerous club nights in Melbourne for outfits such as Machine, Bunker, and stranger. Strong support for his techno releases has been seen from the likes of Richie Hawtin, DJ Hell, Thomas Schumacher, Amotik, and many more...
