VALHALLA
VALHALLA is a House & Techno DJ/Producer from Fife, Scotland. His passion for music led him to learn the art of DJing at the young age of 11. A year later, he began teaching himself how to produce electronic music.
In 2020, VALHALLA launched Groove Shack Records, earning support from the likes of Fatboy Slim and releasing music from top artists like Gunjack, Sandro M., Hans Bouffmyhre, MarAxe & Jon10. The label also gained airplay on BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 6.
VALHALLA's album DNA topped the Norwegian iTunes charts, coming in at #1 in Techno Albums & #29 in Techno Albums in the UK. The album's House single, House of Tribe, was also featured on Spotify's own editorial playlists, Friday Crate Diggers and Dance Rising. In 2022, VALHALLA’s remix of
"Get A Little Deeper" by The Rhythmic State hit #4 on the UK and #22 on the German iTunes Techno charts.
In 2024, he debuted his Hybrid Live set at Rezerection: The Homecoming at Ingliston Royal Highland Centre—the venue of his first big rave, marking a full circle moment in his journey. VALHALLA’s Hybrid Live sets push boundaries by blending the precision of DJing with the spontaneity of live music creation. Armed with drum machines, samplers, and synthesizers, he remixes tracks on the fly while crafting fresh grooves and textures in real time. The result? A dynamic fusion of Acid Techno, House, and Raw/Hypnotic Techno—each performance a unique journey of evolving rhythms and immersive soundscapes.
VALHALLA is making waves in the underground Techno scene with a signature sound defined by raw intensity, driving grooves, and hypnotic energy. His remix of Bass Drop by Luke McMahon hit #1 on Beatport’s Raw/Deep/Hypnotic Techno chart in February 2025, cementing his reputation as a rising force in the genre. With a relentless drive to push boundaries and deliver immersive sets, VALHALLA is quickly becoming a name to watch in global techno. He regularly charts in Beatport’s Top 100, with Acid Storm reaching #9 in December 2024.
His music has gained support from DJ Rush, Judge Jules, Mauro Picotto, The Southern, Alex Di Stefano, Sonique, StoneBridge and many more. He also hosted The Residency on Beat 106 Scotland until the station closed on July 1, 2025.
