Brought up in the forests of Tasmania, Owen Braddock grew up in a house that had a HiFi system in the place of TV, which turned all his attention towards sound, music & how sonic frequencies interacted with the world around him.
Early in 2014, deep in the kiwi mountains a friend gave the now dance music obsessed Owen an intro into mixing music on a set of Pioneer cdjs, and Monkey Paws was born. That April he moved to Melbourne, where his love of high quality dance music led him to the Progressive & Techno collective Groovement Productions & playing his debut set at their 'Funky Freak Show' before Maxi Basshead that July.
In 2015 the Monkey created The Rebel Collective with Melbourne born producer, Skwid as an independent platform/label to host events & promote music they both love & create.
Throughout the time he spent living in Melbourne the Monkey refined his psychedelic blend of driving progressive grooves playing at numerous well renowned events & club nights hosted by crews such as Yemaya Festival, Beyond Surreal, BFG Sound-System, Contact High, Rebel Collective, Ergot Radio, Counter Culture, Intergalactic, Groovement Productions, Versus & Sand Tribe throughout Victoria. His sound reached the right ears across in New Zealand & after coming over to play at festivals such as Infinite One, Discombobulation, Twisted Frequency, Golden Bass, Cymatics & Ponies he left Australia & settled in the South Island of NZ.

From the lush, green embrace of the Dandenong Ranges, emerges Timmus, a sonic architect mapping the uncharted territories of sound. His name, a subtle reversal of "summit," hints at a collective climb, a voyage into the heart of vibration. "Music is the air in every breath," he declares, a testament to a life lived in resonant harmony.

As the owner and director of the Australian label Smash Bang Records, Timmus is a prolific artist with a diverse range of sonic explorations. He crafts and performs under various aliases, each a unique facet of his artistic vision: Sacred Summit, Micro Jaxon, Swingtime Paradigm, and Psymus Drummit. He also lends his rhythmic prowess as the hybrid drummer for The Oddness & Band.

These projects, along with his solo work, showcase his ability to seamlessly blend genres and push the boundaries of sonic exploration.
He is a weaver of sound, a collector of auditory fragments, a builder of sonic sanctuaries. From the tender age of four, nestled in the quiet of rural Victoria, he crafted instruments and captured sonic impressions on cassette. By twelve, he was sculpting sonic landscapes with digital tools, foreshadowing his future as a master of auditory alchemy.

Timmus is a prism, refracting sound into a spectrum of artistic expressions. His DJ sets are not mere performances but immersive journeys, blurring the lines between genres, inviting listeners to transcend the ordinary. He is a sonic archaeologist, unearthing the hidden frequencies of the world. Field recordings, tribal rhythms, minimalist whispers, and sacred harmonies merge into a tapestry of sound. He crafts instruments from the remnants of the everyday, coaxing forgotten melodies from discarded objects. His vision: a "universal gathering of beings and cultures," a symphony of micro-sounds that heal and unite.

In the tranquil haven of Artimmus / Creative Concepts & Studio Recording, nestled amidst the whispering trees of the Dandenong Ranges, Timmus extends his artistry to others. He offers a sanctuary for creative souls, a space where the intangible becomes real. He captures the essence of sound, from the raw energy of a live performance to the subtle nuances of a spoken word. He crafts sonic healing journeys and collaborates with artists to bring their visions to life.

Having released his music on labels across the globe and remixed prominent artists, Timmus has performed at festivals worldwide, his performances leaving trails of sonic stardust.
Timmus invites you to join him on his climb, a journey into the heart of sound, a quest for the peak of sonic consciousness.
