Summary: Gene Hoffmann has been an active part of the world techno fraternity since 1996. He is known for his multichannel DJ sets that blend a wide range of techno, enticing the mind and feet, and for his infectious enthusiasm for techno music in general. Between 1998 and 2006 Gene worked as a busy techno DJ and occasional underground promoter. He has shared the stage with international techno acts including Adam Beyer, Richie Hawtin, The Advent, Speedy J, Chris Liebing, Joel Mull, Oliver Ho, The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Green Velvet, Samuel L Session, Slam, Sven Vath, Magda, Mike Humphries, Carl Cox, Ben Sims and DJ Misjah, at renowned Hardware, Earthcore, Enchanted, Two Tribes, Sunshine People, Digital Music Festival, Future and Totem events. He travelled across Australia, Asia and Europe to play, and was a regular act on local Melbourne lineups until his decision to take an extended break in 2006. After a three year hiatus Gene returned in 2009 with recharged batteries and renewed vigor. He now lives in the Australian bush outside of Melbourne and loves nothing more than mixing at home to his wife, kids and select mates in his studio. He doesn't want to play weekly gigs anymore, but feels very privileged to be invited to play occasional good quality techno events and to share his music to the greater techno community on podcasts and Soundcloud. Gene is a passionate controllerist and a music gear junkie, and has been since digital DJing was in its infancy. After learning his trade on turntables for the best part of a decade he progressed on to Final Scratch in 2004. His current workflow includes Traktor Scratch Pro 2, an Allen & Heath Xone DX, an A&H Xone K2 and Native Instruments Maschine. Alongside Matt Van Diemen, he is a member of the #1 techno boy band in the world - JESUS HORSE (soundcloud.com/jesus-horse). He loves his wife, the Carlton Football Club and his three kids. He's scared of drop bears and bunyips.
