Ollie Wright
Sydney
After receiving his first mix tape on his 4th birthday, 'Oliver's greatest hits volume 1', Olluss has lived his life totally submerged in music.
He started classical piano lessons at the age of 9 and picked up the guitar at 12. He played in grunge bands at high school and bought his first pair of decks in '99. Lucky enough to have a musical family, Olluss had two older brothers to feed off for their well rounded knowledge and selection.
Moving to New Zealand's capital Wellington in 2000, was where he learned most of his skill and craft.
In a city that boasts some of the best and most diverse selectors in the country, it was school on any given night out.
Olluss had his own radio show on 'Active 89fm' and a weekly residency at a one of Welly's finest watering holes 'Tupelo'. As well as featuring at local collective ‘Bass Frontiers’ drum & bass parties, who hosted monthly international guests.
After three years in the capital, Olluss made his move to Sydney, where he has resided now for twenty years.
Involved in the local burner culture belonging to 'Sunset Island’, 'Bizarre Haberdashery' and 'Papania, 'Burning Seed' theme camps, Olluss is a regular, playing many venues all over the city, inner west, beaches and state.
Whether in a club, warehouse, on a beach or out in the bush, he is always dishing out his own signature blend of deep driving party music to compliment the current surrounds.
Featuring at local club nights and festivals, 'SASH',’Subsonic’,’We Love',’Zoo','Lost Paradise' and 'Rhythm and Vines'. Supported djs & producers 'Danny Howells', 'Mr C', 'Osunlade', 'Horse Meat Disco', '2 Bears', ‘Bjorn Wilke’ and ‘FABE’.
Shared stages with 'Disclosure', 'Booka Shade', 'Benga', 'Dj Yoda', 'High Contrast' and many more.
