Hendrik Unic Records Sydney —• Music is something I feel •— 🪂 Co-Founder @Skydancefestival 📀 Co-Founder @Unic-Records ✍ Underground commentator 🎚️ DJ / Selector It’s been quite a ride for the outgoing selector over the past 5 years. Having initially swapped the sunset shores of his native Western Australia for Sydney on the East coast in early 2012, in hindsight it’s been a fruitful decision. Those early years were spend immersing himself in the cities colourful house and techno scene, cutting his teeth in the booths of iconic venues like Chinese Laundry, World Bar, and the Burdekin. A chance venture then lead him across the globe to Canada’s West coast and the simmering Techno scene that was on the rise in Vancouver’s hideaway night spots. A keen supporter of local talent Hendrik quickly became close with many of the cities key underground players, most notably 'Leave Us Lost' co-founder Derrick Vnuk. Their friendship blossomed into a dynamic working relationship that saw the West Aussie become an integral part of LUL’s launch and early success, their day parties being touted as the best in the city. Those two years abroad galvanized Hendrik’s collective experience into a reinvigorated creative force, and upon his return to Sydney, he launched industry brand ‘Unic’ alongside close friend Anthony Elia. Championing artists of resolute individuality and skill, ‘Unic’ seeks to draw a common thread between the minimalist house and techno sounds of Europe and the growing minimal scene on Australia’s East coast. Utilizing his written works to capture the imagination of minimal music lovers across the globe, Hendrik’s reviews and articles have received praise from a myriad of top tier artists and provided him with a rare opportunity to reach a global audience. Now with Sydney’s scene’s seeing a number of rising producers break ground internationally, Elia & Hendrik are using Unic as a vehicle through which they can shine a light on the immense talent that exists within Australia’s underground scene.
