OSCILOPTIX

Osciloptix is the last member of an ancient civilisation of insectoids, known as the Oscilopsians, which inhabited the earth 400 million years ago during the Devonian period.

These crepuscular, insect-like creatures, staged planet-wide synchronised symphonies, at dusk and dawn, that would turn any stagnant body of water into a temporary cymatic masterpiece.

Facing extinction due to the evolution of amphibians at the beginning of the Carboniferous era, in an attempt to migrate to a different timeline, the Oscilopsians built a time portal deep beneath the planet's surface, in the great caverns and harnessed the earth's abundant geo thermal energy to power it.

GROTT

Spawned in 2016, GROTT is the project of Melbourne based DJ Tom Greatorex.

Having spent the 2 years prior playing progressive/full on psytrance at numerous parties across Melbourne and the Victorian bush under the name "Tomzy Turvy", Tom began to yearn for something more serious and in-line with his heavy metal roots and started zeroing in on a style of music that truly resonated with him on a fundamentally deeper level. He found what he was looking for in dark prog, and his discovery ignited a deep, ever-burning passion to share what he had found with like minded freaks and fiends through the biggest sound systems he could get behind. It was at this time that "Tomzy Turvy" was retired, and "GROTT" was born.
