Catacomb is a local DJ based in Toronto. He has long been part of the EDM culture in the city for over a decade. In this time he has explored several different scenes and genres of EDM. Including both the rave and nightclub scene. He began playing as a bedroom DJ around the same time he got his first introductions into the scene. However his interest to play out came much later. His first official DJ gig was in early 2011. Calling many genres of EDM his style over the years, techno is the one he started with and the one he is moving forward with today. Specifically, German techno of the raw and organic nature.

He works with Zero-Percent, a locally based independent event organization company. Which has been responsible for booking international techno acts such as: Sasha Carassi, Erphun and Subfractal (Aka Measure Divide).

Opaque Shift (OS) is a locally based techno collective that he heads. OS was created with the purpose to band together likeminded individuals interested in disseminating techno within their city. The first project that has been put into action concerns recruiting and training locally based techno DJ’s. It also includes assisting them in acquiring equipment, providing them with official gigs and nourishing them along their journey. OS plans to launch more projects in the future that will work towards the goal from different angles.
