Zankee Gulati

A rising producer with a rapidly swelling fanbase, Zankee Gulati is an established DJ and promoter, working hard to find himself at the forefront of Australia’s DJ fraternity since 2011. Tasmanian resident from the Hobart capital, a move to the cosmopolitan Sydney saw an immediate rise to prominence. Captivating audiences with his distinctive sound that combines a broad spectrum of sounds – from uber-cool deep and progressive house to vibrant melodic techno – Zankee’s ability to deliver immaculately crafted, spell-binding sets has seen a raft of performances at some of Australia’s leading clubs and venues. Appearances at Sydney events that include: Return To Rio, Bootz’N’Catz, Blueprint and Decoded Magazine’s Official Sydney Launch, has seen Zankee forge a 24-carat reputation in the city’s thriving underground dance scene with performances alongside a raft of industry icons that include Guy J, Sahar Z, Robert Babicz, Guy Mantzur, Eelke Kleijn, Dusky, 16 bit lolitas and Jody Wisternoff. As a promoter, Zankee Gulati’s resumé is no less impressive. Renowned for two blue-chip brands, ‘Bootz’N’Catz’ exploded onto Sydney’s clubland with an array of talent built upon performances from a DJ elite that has included: Nick Warren, Lane 8, Martin Roth, Yotto and 16 bit lolitas. By contrast, ‘Forbidden Tone’ is a newer club night that finds its focus on the deeper side of the underground dance scene with standout sets from Dutch star, Eelke Kleijn, Israeli DJ Sahar Z , Khen and Melbourne based artists and sometime collaborators, GMJ and Matter. Transposing a wealth of experience in the club and commercial arenas, Zankee Gulati’s nascent production career has seen mesmerising performances behind the decks transposed onto a series of original tracks and remix material that has demonstrated no considerable talent and an acute understanding of a sound that fills club floors. Releases on such notable imprints as Clinique Recordings, Soundteller and Stellar Fountain have illuminated this talent, while the “Breathe” EP on the globally renowned Particles, saw Zankee garner support from across the globe including, Tripswitch, Dmitry Molosh, Darin Epsilon, Lucas Rossi and Atish. With performances at 2018’s “Subsonic” and “Return to Rio”, Zankee Gulati continues to find himself firmly in Australia’s festival circuit spotlight. Basking in its glow, a growing production portfolio illustrates a burgeoning talent that finds itself allied to the industry’s finest record labels. A multi-faceted artist who represents a fierce determination to succeed in a highly competitive and notoriously fickle industry, Zankee Gulati continues to carve out a sizeable niche in the global underground dance scene.
