Fate is a funny thing. Once upon a time, there was a little rave shack association called the Bang Gang, and it was there that the untouchable techno talents that make up Motorik first spread their wings, ready to fly into and onto the dancefloor, with pupils miles wide. There were a number of little speakeasys that hosted these reprobates, but only one that counts, and it’s here that we find ourselves for the next round of fun mit den technø. Forget the nostalgia and prep up your nostrils: we’re back at CLUB 77 and we’re exciteddddddddddddddddddd. On the turntables of steel and CDJs of, um, techno:

Hoodrat is dead. Infusion is dead (maybe). Long live THE FINGER PRINCE! The inventors of K-funk and long standing elder statesmen of rave, Gruzman and Xavier, take time out from their busy schedules of pub ownership and endless knob twiddling to prep up a 3 HOUR SET of the most mind bending and spirit warping of techno, techyes, horse house and late 70’s prog rave classics to celebrate the launch of their upcoming extended plate release on MOTORIK RECORDS .

Who is GENERIK? Model. Social Media Superstar. A man not afraid to prance on a white horse, riding into a techno sunset. He’s on his latest tour promoting himself, the TOUR OF TECHNO, following on from the legendary (on his twitter) TOUR OF COOL. He’s from Melbourne, where you’ll see him looking like fashhhhiooonnnn whilst booking Superdisco and touring nationwide with Stereosonic, whom he also has something to do with, like booking and stuff. He’s available, has great taste in music and is a handsome boy: ladies, start your engines.

Fresh off a triumphant MBFWA, CSMNT61 have had enough of lugging around Korg MS-20s and guitars whilst soundtracking afterparties and runway shows for Christopher Esber and Fernando Frisoni, and have decided to return to the far less lucrative business of playing techno in sweaty nightclubs. Their new EP “Keep Holding On” has garnered support from Brodinski, Mixhell, Triple J, FBi, and a whole bunch of blogs globally. 

Finally, Sydney’s #1 doorman and Motorik joint-chairman of the bored VIVI aka Vi aka VIVIVI is back on opening duties at the nightclub where he learnt to DJ, take acid and get wild times a million at. It’s fate, it is. 

It’s FUN. WITH, UM, TECHNO. Heyyyyy. It’s free with a ticket BUT you gotta get there before 12 otherwise we’re charging $5, in order to pay for the damage you creeps do to all the venues we take over. But we love you anyway.  It’s the most premium clubbing experience in Sydney, forget the Marquee: see you at the sevs. Let’s get wet n wildddddddddddddddddddddddd.

First up we’re bringing the Droogs in real tight for a night of legit Sydney Techno Masters, and to make the jump-off that little bit more special, we’ve made it a Clockwork Orange themed night, so you know we want to see a whole room full of Droogs, we’ll have the place dressed up to make all the Droogs feel right at home. With a drop or two of the Milk plus vellocet, we should be more than ready for a bit of the ol’ ultra-techno, what say you?

Our other special guest for the night is the sunglasses impresario, GRAZ. we warmly welcome him to the MOTOR!K ones and twos on the night and can’t wait to hear what techno he’s been vibing on!

if we could distill the night into a couple of tracks we think it would sound a lot like these two bombs…

MTK!004

The 4th Installment of MOTORIK! is upon us.

This month we are frothing to announce and present…. The return of GLITCH DJs - Matt Aubusson and Dave Choe. With their forward-thinking DJing and tasteful-as-fuck parties, the Glitch crew held the torch for the techno sound during the dark days when breaks ruled the Sydney club scene. Their weekly party at Club 77 (the spiritual home of the Sydney underground) was regularly host to legendary names like Phil Smart, Sugar Ray, Ajax, Ken Cloud, Simon Caldwell.. the list goes on forever.

So this month, we’re doffing our caps to the Glitch crew, thanking them for the good times, and inviting them to share the future with us.

Also on offer - a special late night set from Slow Blow. Melons will surely be twisted.
