This week we are thrilled to welcome Sachin Menon, an avant-garde DJ, producer, and electronic artist from Bangalore, India. His project, @haenofficial, transcends traditional genre constraints within the realms of house, electronica, and techno through fearless experimentation and an unwavering dedication to artistic evolution.
Since its inception in 2020, acclaimed international record labels like Monstercat Silk, Mango Alley, and more have championed HAEN's vision of progressive electronic music. His work earned features on SiriusXM, Cercle, and Anjunadeep playlists, while support from industry titans like Tiesto, Martin Garrix, Eelke Kleijn, Hernán Cattáneo, Mango and others, further helped HAEN reach millions of listeners worldwide.
HAEN released his critically acclaimed seminal album titled 'Con Sequence' on Mango Alley in January 2024. The subsequent album launch event featured an all-original DJ set that guided an enthralled dance floor through his discography, showcasing a bold and distinctive sonic palette molded by creative vision, drive, and attention to detail.
The next phase of his evolution into a true electronic music luminary is an all-original DJ set serving as the bridge between deep intricate house music and progressively hypnotic techno, while using alternative rock and left-field motifs to provide a more genre-fluid aural experience.

“If I had to define my existence, it would not be written in a book, but played through notes in life over the years,” says our guest this week, none other than @jellyforthebabiesofc.
Back in 2004, the fusion of the sounds of soft and mystical house rhythms as well as harmonic parts inspired by trance music gave rise to the first ideas of a project that would only start to appear more actively on the EDM scene a little later, a project called Jelly For The Babies.
What adorns the producer behind the above-mentioned project is the variety in his creations, playing with synths and rhythms, experimentation that eventually led to his sound being easily recognizable.
Just like his spirit, his music is not bound by genre, but is "free", and you can see the releases signed both for progressive and techno, as well as for publishing houses that cultivate the sound of deep, minimal and organic house music.
Therefore, the very thing that makes him original leads to his music, throughout his career, being supported, both through sets and through the charts, by artists such as Hernan Cattaneo, Eelke Kleijn, John Digweed, Way Out West, Guy J and many others.
Then come the first international guest appearances, tours, festivals and club parties in Lithuania, Portugal, France, Germany, Switzerland, South Africa, Holland, Italy as well as countries in the region.
Graduated Audio & Video engineer as well as the owner of three publishing houses, The Purr, One Of A Kind and RYNTH, where he emphasizes discovering new talents, giving young producers a chance, promoting them in the best possible way and mutual cooperation with more experienced colleagues as the key thing .
