THE MIGRATION OF TECH HOUSE — FROM SOUTH LONDON BASEMENTS TO ROMANIAN TEMPLES

THE UNTOLD MIGRATION OF TECH HOUSE Tech House is one of the only genres I’ve ever seen where the actual creators never bothered to create a myth.No grand claims.No polished documentary talking heads.No “we invented this” nonsense. Just South London heads, buried in speakers and late-night sessions, caring more about the room than their résumés. The video captures the timeline, but it doesn’t show what it felt like to be around that energy — to watch something...

What’s in a DJ Name? Why I’m “Scribey”

Most people choose a DJ name to sound cool. I chose mine to stay honest. “Scribey” is a nickname, a brand, a creative alter ego — but mostly, it’s a synthesis of the three disciplines that have defined my life: technology, music, and writing It’s how I work, think, and build — whether I’m writing code, DJing late into the night, or finishing a screenplay draft at 1am while the rest of the world’s asleep....

DJ Practice Techniques: Why Practice Makes Practice

This summer I had some amazing gigs. Nerves? Naturally, you can't get away from them. But once I got into flow, the experience was manageable, maybe even easy. Then I went to the DJ Battle hosted by the Faded Society in London. Five-minute sets. Ridiculous speed. Techniques so sharp they sliced the air. And just like that, my confidence osiclated back down to 'incompetent". Watching those DJs reset the bar — it threw me back...

Why Your DJ Style Is Written in Your DNA

I was listening to the excellent Crossfader Podcast recently when an artist caught my attention. One of their students had quite a meteoric rise, as a DJ, in a relatovely short time. When interviewed she explained that she’d lived in three different countries, and that constant change gave her the confidence to just jump straight into DJing without hesitation. It’s a compelling story — but if you know the Kolbe Index, you’ll see there’s more...

DJing Your Own Tracks: Why It Feels Weird at First

There’s something wild about playing your own productions out loud for the first time. Scroll through Instagram and you’ll see it — a flood of sweaty smiles, hands-in-the-air moments, people absolutely buzzing as their own track drops to a crowd. It looks euphoric. And don’t get me wrong — it can be. But if you're new to producing, like me, and you’ve started DJing your own material, you’ll know there’s another side to that moment. One...

Why Won’t They Come? — The Grassroots Riddle

Electronic music has never been louder. From Ibiza mega-festivals to warehouse takeovers turned “immersive experiences,” the genre is doing just fine at the top. The big players—backed by Venture Capital or Private Equity investors—are creating polished events with global reach. But zoom in, and a different picture emerges. Grassroots events—the ones that birth new sounds, strange ideas, and future headliners—are struggling to pull even a modest crowd. And that’s weird. Because it’s never been easier to create...

The Subculture of Social Media (for DJs Who Hate Social Media)

Dance music is born from subculture. Underground. Alternative. Marginal. Expressive. These words are stitched into the DNA of the scene — they aren’t add-ons, they’re its source code. But here’s the paradox: DJs — the very people shaping and soundtracking this world — often recoil at the idea of expressing themselves on social media. The idea of being "alternative" in a digital context feels cringeworthy to many. The need for attention? Even worse. I’ve lost count...

Fabric & Toolroom: Real > Reach

What I Learned in Two Hours at the Toolroom Conference I didn’t get the full day – planes, trains, and life – but I did make it to Toolroom’s conference at Fabric. And honestly? Even a couple of hours was enough to hit me with some serious insights. The space was buzzing. Labels, artists, producers, promoters, future-of-music types. A proper stew of energy, ideas, and the usual Fabric magic. Here’s what got me thinking...

🚨 Scribey’s Ibiza Takeover — 7 July 2025 🚤☀️

One boat. 100 free souls. Let’s go! This summer, I’m jumping aboard the legendary Ibiza Boat Club to deliver a sun-drenched house set in the middle of the Mediterranean — and I want you there when it all kicks off. Monday, 7th July 2025 — mark it, circle it, shout it into your calendar. This is one of the island’s most iconic floating parties, and I’ll be spinning on one of two back-to-back voyages: Like a yacht...
