Scionaugh // Sciotech

Producer and Ableton educator. Deep Daytime. Bush Prog.

Project 01

Scionaugh

Borne of curiosity and sonic exploration, Scionaugh brings together alien, instrumental and organic sounds in equal parts groovy, driving and playful. Intelligent production that evades capture by any single genre -- from funky morning grooves to the deeper psychedelic explorations of a nighttime dancefloor.

Project 02

Sciotech

A surreal blend of house and techno bursting with ear candy. Created in the tension between synthetic and organic, Sciotech is a digital regurgitation of the sounds of nature -- meticulously sculpted with a background in mathematics and engineering to an otherworldly level of detail and precision.

The
Producer

Scionaugh combines the Latin scio -- "to know" -- with naught, meaning nothing. To know nothing. It is a philosophy of radical curiosity and a permanent beginner's mindset, chosen deliberately in 2016 to counteract the perfectionism that had previously stopped the work from ever leaving the hard drive. The name became a commitment: release music not because it is perfect, but because the idea is finished and it is time to move on to the next one.

Raised on the Mornington Peninsula, he found psytrance young and never looked back -- drawn first to the music, then to the community of like-minded people gathered in the bush under open sky. That sense of belonging, and that deep connection with nature, runs through everything he makes.

He started making music in early 2016 with a single goal -- to create the sounds he could hear in his head for that dancefloor. He has been performing live since early 2017. Ten years with Ableton Live, informed by an academic background in electrical engineering and astrophysics, gives his production a technical precision that sits beneath the surface without announcing itself. That same rigour carries into his teaching: sharing knowledge is not separate from the creative process but part of it. Learning and teaching form a continuous loop -- each one feeding the other, both feeding the music.

Over the course of his career, Scionaugh has played some of Australia's most prominent psytrance and electronic music festivals, earning a reputation as a reliable and distinctive voice on the dancefloor. That reach has extended well beyond Australia, with performances across multiple continents and a growing international following. His recorded output spans an extensive and eclectic discography across labels on six continents, each release a document of where the sound was at that moment. Taken together, they trace a journey of genuine curiosity and restless experimentation rather than a calculated path to a fixed destination.

On Stage

Wachalal, Lake Atitlan 2026

2026

Wachalal, Lake Atitlan

A super special community and a very special place. The whole time I was there I was just pinching myself, thinking how the hell do I get to play at such beautiful places so far from home.

Twisted Frequency 2026

2026

Twisted Frequency

My third time at Twisted Frequency. I absolutely love this festival -- the site, the people, the music. It always leaves me so inspired. It really is the absolute hub of underground music in New Zealand.

Tanglewood Festival 2025

2025

Tanglewood Festival

Tanglewood in 2015 was the moment I realised I wanted to create electronic music and perform live. Getting to play ten years later -- seeing how much the festival had evolved and how much I had evolved as a producer -- was a full circle moment that nearly brought me to tears.

Nyx 2024

2024

Nyx

Nyx really is the home of Bush Prog, and I feel they truly appreciate the deep daytime sound. It was also the return of Sun Control Species, who was fundamental in creating the Bush Prog sound from the very beginning. To be part of that lineup and witness his return was something truly special.

Esoteric Festival 2024

2024

Esoteric Festival

The debut of the Sciotech project. Absolutely honoured to debut at the Bush Techno stage at Esoteric -- a festival that heavily inspired and influenced Sciotech from the beginning. A special milestone.

Dragon Dreaming Festival 2024

2024

Dragon Dreaming Festival

I played after Perfect Stranger on the main stage -- a huge slot. The crowd was incredible. It was also the first time my little sister got to see me play at a festival, which made it all the more special.

Esoteric Festival Chill Island 2023

2023

Esoteric — Chill Island

The Sciotech set on Chill Island at Esoteric 2023, following Gumi Project, may have been my favourite DJ set to date. I had planned a super chill IDM set but after Gumi blew everyone's mind there was a big dancefloor. There was no other choice but to dig deep into my collection of psychedelic bass music and go track by track. It reminded me of the excitement of DJing from a collection of hundreds of your favourite tracks.

Esoteric Festival 2022

2022

Esoteric Festival

The Sunday morning slot on the Ascension stage. Always an honour to bring in a new day at a festival like Esoteric. I dressed up for the occasion to add to the lunacy of Sunday morning.

Bohemian Beatfreaks 2022

2022

Bohemian Beatfreaks

A truly special set -- I played between two of my biggest idols, Smilk and Grouch. The crowd went absolutely off and I had so much fun. One of those sets you never forget.

Earth Frequency 2021

2021

Earth Frequency

A festival I had always wanted to play. I attended Earth Frequency three times before this set, and the music and vibe always felt like the pinnacle of Australian festivals. Playing the Universal Tribe showcase here was truly an honour and a landmark moment in my career.

Esoteric Festival Ascension Stage 2020

2020

Esoteric — Ascension Stage

The last festival before the end of the world. My first time playing Esoteric -- the biggest psytrance festival in Australia after Rainbow Serpent retired. COVID-19 was announced as a pandemic the week after I returned home.

Where the Wild Things Are 2020

2020

Where the Wild Things Are

Where the Wild Things Are at CERES -- the premier day festival in Melbourne for Bush Prog daytime music, and one that had inspired my sound a lot. Playing the main stage here was a real milestone.

Tamagotchi Pipe Dreams EP

Scionaugh

Tamagotchi Pipe Dreams EP

Universal Tribe Records

A long-awaited EP built around the story of a digital creature longing for the real world -- the smell of grass after rain, the warmth of sunlight, wind through trees. A fantasy of breaking free from digital shackles and running into the forest in search of something wild and real.

April 2026

Fault In The Formula Pt.2

Sciotech

Fault In The Formula Pt.2

Alpaka Muzik

April 2026

Astral Zucchinia

Scionaugh & Kuni

Astral Zucchinia

Padang Records

The sonic sorcerers return from the ether. The tonic of plasmogamy transported their minds to a far away realm, from which they returned with auditory treasures -- the teachings of the Astral Zucchinia, a higher consciousness whose purpose was to align the duo's constitution.

October 2023

Plasmogamy

Kuni & Scionaugh

Plasmogamy

Padang Records

Born from a time of disconnect. Lady Luck brought two sonic sorcerers together -- Kuni, the melodious loon, and Scionaugh, the conjuror of critters. It was only through the process of Plasmogamy that their grand offering to the doof gods could be achieved.

July 2021

Fault In The Formula Pt.1

Sciotech

Fault In The Formula Pt.1

Alpaka Muzik

The debut Sciotech EP -- a multipart exploration of complex minimalism focussing on evolving repetition. Futuristic sound design weaves melodic ear candy through infectious grooves, existing at the point where expectation meets misdirection. ALPAK133.

February 2025

In The Moog

Scionaugh

In The Moog

Alpaka Muzik

Sparked when John Baptiste lent Scionaugh a Moog Mother 32, this 7-track debut psy-tech album explores slower tempos, evolving leads and infectious rhythms -- blending sleek digital psy-trance sound design with warm analogue instrumentation and highlighting the Australian bush techno sound. ALPAK053.
