COMPLEX From Cork City, Ireland, dj Complex is a founding member of TECH FM & the newly launched techfmireland.com as well as the Indica Sound System. Complex plays an extremely wide range of music after over 12 years djing. Every type of 4x4 mashed up is the hallmark, with little or no attention to genre boundaries. Started playing on pirate radio on radio k2 in january 1997 and guested on radio friendly twice. He has played in various clubs across Ireland including the Vaults, Redz , Club Rennaisance, Sir henrys and too many clubs & bars to mention in cork and elsewhere.

STYLES: Plays everything from tribal / electro/ grungy house to techno/techtrance. Whatevers good on the night. The Indica Sound System have been playing together & working together on various projects for nearly ten years is made up of Complex, T-Rev & Darren M, With music production about to be their next venture, a label launch is planned for early 2007 with some exciting new Irish Artists involved. RESIDENCIES: inferno [Cork, Ireland] Livewire [Cork Ireland] Kommunity [Cork, Ireland] T-REV T-rev has been djing for over 12 years and is a prime mover on corks techno scene. A member of the Indica Sound system he cut his radio teeth on k2 and his friday night techno show on Tech FM is proberly the most upfront in cork. Avoiding the more traditional techno sounds T-rev plays more cutting edge dancefloor & tech trance big room sounds. He has played alongside dj Complex,Darren M,Glenn K,dj Tek,Jamie Behan,Sean C,Mark D,Mick Cee, Funk d Void, Tony Thomas, Tom Hades,Eric Sneo, Filterheadz,Misstress Barbara,Jan Liefhebber,clare large,mark williams,Miss Motif,dolce musica,eric sneo and in a list of venues too long to mention. T-rev also indulges in tech house & electro when the situation demands (and it does a lot in Cork). He is also a regular at tech FM Inferno,kommunity & LiveWire events and is the main man behind fledging promoters 'Creekyfloor productions'. Production is the logical next step for the Indica Sound System and T-rev and the lads have been laying the foundations for this for the last few years. DARREN M A founding member, Darren is one of the few good trance djs in Cork. Darren's mixes go from proggy trance to euphoric tech-trancers seamlessly. Part of a new generation that isn't restricted by genre, Darren also plays an assortment of house music that refuses to see the boundarys between genres. He started his radio appearances on k2 like the rest of the Indica Sound System after the closure of which led to Tech FM being set up. Darren has played before with Funk d'void and Henrik B and is a regular at Tech FM Inferno gigs.
