Bio:

Techno and Electronica producer from Australia In 1993 while hitch-hiking through the Negev desert at 100 miles an hour, Allan heard Techno properly for the first time. A seed popped in his head and something started growing in this aspiring Jazz pianist. Seeing Jammin Unit at Club Filter circa 1994 added water to that seed. It wasn’t until 1997 till that seed turned into the first demo of Son of Zev. Within months Son of Zev was appeared at his first If? Records Zoetrope gig at the legendary Punters Club. He never missed another Zoetrope session until the last one took place in 2001. From the late 90’s through till the late naughties Son of Zev played in every kind of venue and gig in Melbourne Australia, from free outdoor parties, benefits in little warehouses, clubs and big warehouse raves and festivals. From the funky More Bass to the Acid driven 909, from Every Picture Tells a Story to Offshore (as part of the L.N.E.E project). In that time Allan had releases and remixes on IF? Records, Elektrax Music and individual releases After a brief hiatus, Allan returned to the Son of Zev project with his EP Continuation, celebrating the birth of his daughter. In 2020 Son of Zev released his Into The Wilderness on Slice Records, a live set for the 2nd 303% Acid Slice compilation, a remix of a Kids Rodentia song for a bushfire relief fundraiser. 2021 will see some archival tracks being released, a collaboration with Arcane Trickster and possibly some other tracks which are all under way. While mostly studio based these days, Son of Zev still loves performing live every now and again, prepared to flex the muscle memory of over 23 years in live performance.
