electronic music in 2002. At that time, the raves have begun to expand throughout all
Brasilia city where they live. Over these years, they have searched to know and to learn
about the rhythms that shake the raves. With several friends DJs and producers in scene,
they have their interest called to work with this. In 2005, Guilherme went to Belo
Horizonte in order to learn more by working in the best music studio of that city. In
2006, he returned to Brasilia and met Rodrigo, who was already doing his experiences with
progressive trance. Then, they decided to join themselves to develop this project. At
last, after months into a studio, they presented their first production. Thus that they
launched their work, they had a big surprise with the great public recognition. 2007 was
a lucky year: they presented their work in many parties, beside national and

wasabi.

until Jan 2007 when he found himself barefoot in the Aussie bush in front of some monster
speaker stacks that he realized his ultimate musical direction. The Doof had changed him
forever! With a focus on positive and healing vibrations Merkaba combines deep basslines
with lush melodies, tribal percussion and a focus on an overall 'organic' sound. Prepare
for a vibrational journey that connects the mind, heart, body, and Dancefloor!
Child

life he could communicate only through a series or grunts and growls. Rescued by Hasidic
Jewish explorers who went on to become his adopted parents, Child was introduced to
classical folk music quickly learning the glockenspiel and the tambourine.
Through these tools and an old commodore 64 computer he was able to devise a system which
enabled him to finally communicate with the outside world and thus the reclusive veil,
which was previously his life, was finally lifted. A talented producer of all things
techno, Child was brought on to the Melbourne division of Derrick May's Hi Tek Soul from
which he was able to firmly establish himself in the Australian techno community.
Child has had the privilege to play at a number of the major festivals locally and
internationally sharing the stage with a diverse array of the worlds greatest electronic
acts including Carl Cox, Shpongle, Extrawelt/ Midimilliz, Groove Armada, Funk D'void,
Luke Vibert, Infected Mushroom, Justin Martin and many others

outdoor party scene their tunes include anything from breaks to progressive house to
psy-trance to dub and electro. Both guys have spent a lot of time producing music in
their studios and are hoping to make positive movements within the electronic music
community. With a solid background in musical creation the pair are set to expand their
horizons and share their talents with the big wide world
Xen Ochren (Polyphase Records/live)
Xen Ochren is Evan Morgan, an avid pursuer of life through music, culture, relationships
and the search for God "I love so much in progressive music... Its got such potential for
depth, for story telling, for hypnotic rhythms and harmonic grooves... I crave the
challenge of making electronic music as live as I can .. I admire the beauty of music,
and how we can inhale it through our ears and exhale it through dance... and I hope for
the moment in progressive sets when you've been grooving on the back of your feet for so
long,, just enjoying the beauty wash over you, and the experience progresses to a new
foundation... down you fall into a spiral of emotive bliss-sucked forward to the
bassbins-sucked forward into the journey of a creative progressive set... in this
space I have had my most natural conversations with God.. for me these are the goals,
I'll be chasing them forever!
Xen Ochren is currently studying a diploma of music performance and also plays percussion
drums and didge. We are excited to have his first releases out soon on Polyphase records!

of 15, DJing on community and high school radio stations.. In 2005 Piro decided it was
time for a new DJ alias and "Bun-D.M.C" was born. Since then his passion for many various
styles of music has lead him to DJ at all manner of events and clubs in a number of
scenes. To name just a few of these would be Rave and Goth gigs such as Pharmacy, 3D,
Cyberball, Viper room, DV8 and a residency with Dark Events. Of course the favorite
styles for Bun-D.M.C to play would have to be PSY, Prog and Acid which has lead him to
play at events such as Earthcore, Tribeadellic, Diaspora, Fullmoon Gathering, Toons
Alive, Dejavu, Psyanide Sessions and many more. It was at Tribeadellic NYE 08/09
Bun-D.M.C played one of his innovative Live sets to finish off 2008. These Live sets
however are not what you may expect, as instead of using a laptop Bun-D.M.C comes to the
stage equipped with a microphone and all manner of instruments and musical toys. Recent
Live sets have seen Bun-D.M.C use everything from bongos and cow bells through to slide
whistles, kazoos and even balloons. Always pushing the boundaries and experimenting with
music is second nature for Bun-D.M.C so be sure not to miss his next live performance, as
anything is possible!
