We acknowledge the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation as the traditional custodians of the land on which we live and work. Sovereignty has never been ceded.

My style developed out of an obsession with dancing and nightlife. Being inspired by the rich and diverse clubscene in Amsterdam and Berlin. I've adopted a dynamic genre fluid style with alot of drive and layers. Taking elements from various kinds of Psytrance, Techno, Tekno and a bit of everything else.

Freek is a very generous dj/producer, his style has no conventions, he can not be pigeon-holed. Filthy electro, drippy acid, dirty disco, melodic electronics, quirky house, leftfield techno, otherworldly ambient etc. Fabricius is also a member of the illustrious 030303 collective and record label. He shared the stage with legends such as Apex Twin, Autechre, Squarepusher, Black Devil Disco, Legowelt, Dopplereffekt,, 808 State Ceephax Acid Crew, Arabian Prince, DJ Stingray and many more. During his dj sets he takes you on a musical trip and he is always elegantly dressed in smile. With some solo fabrications coming up on several labels he found his place as a producer also. True music lover without being all pretentious about it. X

Though most people will know 36framez as a nightlife photographer and frequent dancefloor attendee, they also have a profound passion for playing and collecting vinyl records.

Their record bag is filled with everything house, from punchy rhythms with queer vocals, to deep and soulful grooves or quirky curveballs. 

36framez previously moved dancers' feet with sets at clubs/festivals like IsBurning, Into The Woods ADE, KABUL À GoGo, Sissi's, NAR and WAS. With quite some cool gigs scheduled, 2025 looks bright & interesting. Their goal is to make everyone feel free to be themselves and dance like nobody's watching.

Wondrous world of Birdcage Radio. Utrecht, Netherlands.
Find out more via any of the links below.

Travel just thirty kilometers south from Amsterdam and you’ll find another world where jogging pants are the new cool and people actually feel free to smile when they go out. You have arrived in Utrecht. Call it Little Cornwall if you will, because it was in the South-West corner of England that lads like Aphex Twin, Luke Vibert and Mike Paradinas made their quirky yet emotional electronic music without acting cool as was common practice in the dancemusic scene at the time.
 
It’s exactly this Cornish way of life that appealed to the boys of Utrecht’s dj-collective and recordlabel 030303. Mind you, 030303 are not ashamed of their love for serious IDM and glitch flavoured tunes by contemporary hotshots .But they also enjoy watching the unsure expressions on the faces of their fellow music lovers whilst playing eurotrashy tunes by the likes of Twenty 4 Seven and Quadrophonia in trashy taverns such as Tivoli, Ekko, Melkweg and Kikker.
 
As healthier ways of living came into fashion in the 1980s, acid became more than a mere chemical substance and started to come out of machines as well. Despite their very young age, the 030303 crew became a huge fan of a particular bassline machine made by the Roland corporation and so did other now big names such as Cylob, D’Arcangelo and Ceephax amongst others, all of which come and celebrate the acid bleep at 030303 events around Utrecht and the dandy town of Amsterdam.
 
Being right in the middle of the happening acid-scene, the 030303 crew could not help doing what any other freak would do: they had to start releasing acid-tunes by Braindance veterans as well as by younger musicians. 030303’s chart-toppers range from subtle to bombastic and highly psychedelic, the common denominator always being a very deep bleep.
 
It’s just as fantastic as you’ve just read: 030303 brings a very complete picture that will never be equaled by any other crew. Feel free to rock up at any 030303 event near you but don’t forget to dress up as corny as possible! Aciiiiieeed!!!
