Objekt is TJ Hertz, a producer and DJ living in Berlin. Born in Tokyo to British-American and Filipino parents, Hertz grew up in Belgium and the UK before settling in Berlin in 2009. He first became known for head-turning club records, beginning with the self-released stamped whitelabel 12”s Objekt #1 and #2 in 2011, and following these up with remixes for Radiohead and SBTRKT and releases on influential dance music labels such as Hessle Audio. His club output quickly garnered critical acclaim and support from the likes of Aphex Twin and Autechre. Shocking out to the disassembled dubstep contortions of "Cactus" and “Unglued”, the juddering mindmelt of "Agnes Demise", or IDM headturner “Ganzfeld” became a familiar experience for a generation of open-minded clubgoers. Hertz’s early successes led to a split EP on Leisure System with Drexciyan electro pioneers Dopplereffekt. (The track in question, “Ganzfeld”, was picked as RA’s #1 track of 2014.) Objekt #4, released in 2017, delivered a huge crossover hit in the form of breakbeat house anthem “Theme From Q”. On his next EP, Objekt #5, he happily squandered whatever mass appeal Theme From Q had won him and turned in his slowest - and perhaps fiercest - 12” to date, exploring twisted dancehall rhythms and sonics with his trademark originality. In 2024, Objekt launched Kapsela, a new label to supersede his eponymous white label series and serve as an artistic home base for his own output. Presented by Chameleon. This is an 18+ event
