The ethos

It's about the tribe

Simply Techno was born from a deep and passionate love for techno music and the incredible diversity of styles within the genre. The goal was simple: to bring our favourite sounds together in one place and share that passion with others.

What started as an intimate first show of 100 heads quickly turned into an endless creativity portal where new ideas, collaborations and visions began to flow. Now we strive to create more than just events. We want to hear more from others, find new and innovative ways of presenting techno, and build unique platforms and environments where we can share this musical experience together.

01

Old school × new school

From Richie Hawtin, Sven Väth and Jeff Mills to Charlotte de Witte, The YellowHeads and Pig&Dan.

02

Fit over fame

Guests are chosen for their fit with the room rather than headline status. The residents are the core.

03

Room to grow

Whether it's a veteran sharing their craft or a newcomer's first mix, we're here for the journey of emerging Adelaide artists.

The tribe. The evolution. The immersion.
It's simply techno.
