About Audiomenace: Techno Takeovers
When you book an Audiomenace set, we skip the radio hits and mainstream filler. My sound is strictly built on melodic, minimal, and acid techno, so be ready for a set that builds tension and drives the room. If your venue has the right sound system—ideally with solid subwoofers—I guarantee that hypnotic, late-night energy that keeps the dancefloor packed until sunrise.
Crafting the Sound
My sets as Audiomenace are not just about playing tracks; it is about navigating the room. Whether it is a sundowner at a rooftop lounge in Gurugram or an underground warehouse party, the focus stays on the rhythm. You can expect a deep dive into hypnotic and driving techno. If you are looking for those melodic, atmospheric moments that transition into acidic, pulsating basslines, that is my wheelhouse.
Why Technical Matters
To make this work, the hardware is non-negotiable. I perform exclusively on Pioneer CDJ (2000 NXS2 or 3000) setups with a DJM 900 mixer. Without proper monitoring and a sound system that can actually handle low-end frequencies, the depth of the music gets lost. I have spent 9 years behind the decks, including sharing stages with international heavyweights like Drumcomplex, so I know exactly how to manage a floor—whether it is a 2-hour warm-up or a 6-hour marathon.
Managing the Floor
I am here for the people who want to dance, not just stand around. That means no Bollywood requests and no commercial interruptions. If you are planning a night where the music is the main attraction, we will be a perfect fit. I work closely with event organizers to understand the vibe, ensuring the progression from deep house to hard techno is seamless and stays locked in.
Essjay
I am Essjay, and when the sun goes down and the BPM drops, I flip into Audiomenace. I have spent the last nine years building my sound in the underground scenes of Delhi and the mountains of Kasol. I do not do commercial sets, just pure, relentless techno.
