In the space of just four years, English techno act WHYT NOYZ has risen from an unknown name to a staple of some of the world’s biggest electronic music labels.

Now a solo project of David Sidley, WHYT NOYZ was formed in 2010 by two best friends to formulate their take on sleek, hard-grooving techno – having been raised on a shared diet of electronic and black music. Hip-hop, funk and soul all played formative roles before he discovered house music thanks to the likes of Joey Negro and Masters At Work and began playing in local clubs. His passion for techno soon followed. “As I got more into the electronics of sound and this symbiotic relationship between man and machine, I began to dig deeper” he recalls. The powerful rhythmic components of the WHYT NOYZ sound also give a nod to his background as a drummer – something he has been doing since the age of 6. He began producing in 2007.

Fusing the groove of post-minimal techno with live percussive elements, deft rap samples and high-impact effects, WHYT NOYZ’s is a resolutely contemporary sound – but one that still gives subtle nods to his past. “As my creative mind has developed, so has the sound” he says of his blend of digital and analog. “It has evolved into something more considered and memorable. A sound that has a stronghold in something peak-time and driving but with melodic elements to help captivate the mind.”

Catching Richie Hawtin’s ear with early production Volcano made for the perfect start to WHYT NOYZ’s career, with the track signed to his MINUS12 imprint and featured on the label boss’ Mixmag ‘New Horizons’ compilation. This huge seal of approval set Sidley on a fast track into the upper echelons of the techno scene, with Dubfire signing the Homewerk EP to his SCI+TEC Digital imprint after they met in Ibiza. The release landed in Beatport’s Top 40 Techno Chart, and led to a follow-up (They EP).

Releases and remixes for Sian’s Octopus Black Label, Kaiserdisco’s KD Music and Monika Kruse’s Terminal M all followed, plus an appearance on Pan-Pot’s Sonne Mond Sterne compilation, cementing his reputation and vindicating Hawtin’s early belief in the WHYT NOYZ sound. Impressed by the success of Volcano, he signed the act up for a full release: Back To The Future EP. The Minus boss gave all four tracks heavy rotation during the 2013 season of his Space Ibiza night ENTER. He continues to play digital bonus track Meh Meh to this day. The EP hit Beatport’s Techno Chart Top 5, and received support from Pete Tong on Radio 1 - notably during his Glastonbury Essential Mix.

The ongoing success of the partnership with Minus led to another five-track EP in 2014 (It Grows, supported by the likes of Adam Beyer) and a string of tour dates supporting Hawtin across the world. WHYT NOYZ played alongside him at the hallowed Ten Days Off in Belgium, between him and Disclosure at Kappa FuturFestival in Italy and in front of a home crowd at the legendary fabric in London. His sets continue to garner rave reviews, with bookings at Berlin’s Watergate, Paris’ Le Tunnel (“1200 people going totally nuts, sweat dripping off the roof”) and in Ibiza, Amsterdam, Mexico City, Goa and Istanbul to name a few.

With the release of his third SCITEC Ep Dimensions and a host of remixes to boot, it looks very much like WHYT NOYZ’s rapid ascent will continue and place him amongst the big leagues of electronic music. “My goal is simply to continue producing and playing music to stay connected” he says. “As my sound constantly develops, I feel energised to keep pushing to see where it goes. It is a drug for sure.”

After a lifetime of making music, Jon Gaiser is always leading from the front of his own world. With his signature sound, he has created a shift in the direction of underground electronic music, starting a movement of atmospheric bass-line driven techno that is entirely unique and unmistakable. It has come almost exclusively on Richie Hawtin’s Minus, and with that label he has been an influential part of the modern day techno landscape, both on stage and in the studio. From pioneering Minus projects like Contakt and CNTRL, to being a key resident of ENTER via his always inventive live sets and mind bending visual accompaniments, Gaiser has always harnessed the power of electronic music and nurtured its most evocative and cinematic possibilities. 
Coming up in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Gaiser’s musical life ranged from the formal, where he studied percussion with the symphony, to the informal, where he played drums in punk rock bands. Later experiencing the golden years of Detroit, it was the infinite possibilities and futuristic darkness of techno that really captured him, and since his early teens he has been on an endless mission to create sounds that have never been heard before. 
He has accomplished this on many occasions now, thanks to his exquisite sense of sound design. Pair that with his ability to evoke otherworldly feelings and knit drums together into the most compelling grooves, and you have something entirely immersive. Someone who is inspired by the odd and peculiar sound tools, from the latest digital technology to extremely rare analog pieces, what matters most to Gaiser is the end result. Across countless releases and nonstop touring around the world, he has proven that time and time again.
Further proof of his artistry comes on his four studio albums. From the abstract minimal of “Blank Fade” (2008) to the spaced out and industrial ambiance under the name VOID “No Sudden Movements” (2011) to the slick- and sci-fi percussions of “False Light“ (2014), Gaiser has very much explored techno’s outer edges in his own cerebral ways. 
2017 will see the light of Gaiser’s next studio album. “III” is an album of evocative and fluid techno that paints colourful pictures in your mind, while your pants are dancing on their own. Each track lives in its own unique world, and together create a dynamic storyline from start to finish. From dark grooves to choppy house, warm atmospheres to curious sci-fi landscapes, it is another complete experience and one that proves Gaiser is unafraid of experimentation, of pushing boundaries and searching out new paths.
