Generik

Generik is Tyson O’Brien, an Australian producer who was playing Melbourne clubs when Calvin Harris heard him at Stereosonic in 2013.

“The Weekend” with Nicky Van She, “Late at Night”, “So High” and “Be There” with A*M*E all reached number one on the ARIA club chart, and Diplo and Skrillex both played his records early.

He has held a Hakkasan Group residency in Las Vegas since, across Hakkasan, OMNIA and Wet Republic, which is why his name turns up on daytime lineups here so often — he is a working Vegas resident rather than a touring headliner passing through.

He has also held summer residencies at Ushuaïa and Pacha in Ibiza, playing alongside Harris, Duke Dumont, Martin Solveig and MK, and he now lives in Los Angeles. Expect house rather than main-stage EDM: he plays for a room he can see.
