Originally from Ukraine but raised in the Netherlands, Illiya Korniyenko’s rise through the European hard techno scene has been a relentless and fast paced affair, akin to his music.
Heavily inspired by the quintessential sound which characterised hardtechno in the early to mid 2000s, Illiya’s productions present driving, mechanical and saturated grooves within the framework of modern industrial techno. The juxtaposition between the past and present are evident in his workflow, utilising classic hardware such as Roland’s 303 and Mackie mixers to carve his own unique sound, often recognisable by warm, analogue laced drums and chaotic acid leads.
His DJ sets oppose nonsense, confidently conquering dance-floors by imploding industrial yet fundamentally percussive techno bangers. His track selection often includes his own productions in addition to self mastered revisions of older tracks, with the sounds of <a href="spotify:artist:5XgookLoEgdcclbv608Tun" data-name="Primus Tech">Primus Tech</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3zCZyqet8mJHJ9RJgUO8Mt" data-name="Robert Natus">Robert Natus</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:1k0bnsqmUolxbTWG00U8Zb" data-name="Glenn Wilson">Glenn Wilson</a> often evident. An artist who’s signature sound is composed of intense yet carefully woven elements is achieved by his enormous attention to detail, evident in both his tracks and sets.
This phenomenon has allowed him to make his mark in some of Europe’s major raves, where he has erupted energy upon Dutch parties such as Intercell, Basis and Courtoisy in addition to international slots at festivals such as Extrema Belgium.
