Ryan Burge aka YLEM

Ryan Burge AKA YLEM has a diverse musical background. He developed his love for music listening to his parents jam whilst sleeping in his Mum’s Yamaha DX7 synth case. After playing in a metal fusion band for a couple of years and peaking with a gig at the Big Day Out 2006, YLEM turned his focus to electronic music. At the beginning of 2008, YLEM heard his first dubstep set. Since then he has been pushing the genre to the underground in the form of DJ’ing and producing whilst also promoting the Perth’s regular monthly dubstep night, WattHz.
