In the early years of the new millennium, a new figure appeared as if out of nowhere on the Perth music scene. Quickly gaining attention and cementing his position on the competitive dance music map by winning the state title in the Channel [v] DJ comp (a title he still holds today - mostly due to the lack of any further channel [v] DJ comps).
Funk, hip-hop, breaks and beats were in his blood when Tee EL hit the decks in 2008. Finding his feet faster than a Ferrari, he settled into his own turntable-style and when he got his first chance to play at 'The Beat Suite', Perth took notice.
After proving he has what it takes, Tee EL was selected to play at the first ‘Fresh Produce’ at Ambar Nightclub and was soon welcomed into the Boomtick family.
Oli began his love of Electronic music as a teen and as soon as he was old enough began spending his weekends in nightclubs.
This led to his desire to own the music being played in these clubs and at this time the only way to do this was to buy records and he began collecting.
Being scolded by his parents for scratching their vinyl and breaking needles, DNGRFLD has always been obsessed with manipulating records. Kicking things off with a $20 beat-up, belt driven turntable and Fender practice amp, he ruined many a needle (and his mums Motown records) before properly honing his craft.
Marko Paulo (Meet Mark and Easy P) were discovered at a warehouse party they organised in the early months of 2010. Their passion for Breaks and Electro was evident from the get go.
Elbowing his way onto the coveted Ambar roster through sterling efforts at Fresh Produce and Challenger Ready nights, Dead Easy has supported Elite Force, Ctrl Z, Deekline, Hyper, Peo de Pitte, Doctor Werewolf, Bitrok, General Midi, and Far Too Loud.
