About Finatik

Having been born in the golden era of hip hop music and vinyl records in the 1980s, Finatik would take an interest in the art of DJing. It wasn’t long before the dedicated turntablist had mastered the craft, and at just fourteen years of age he began entering battles. He then went on to become the Australian State ITF Champion and Quicksilver State DJ Champion, as well as landing second place in the Australian DMC Finals.

One year and much media attention later his talent was noticed when Finatik gained a sponsorship deal with Ecko Clothing. All this, at the age of fifteen. With constant hard work and dedication, Finatik started hosting his own hip hop radio show Underground Airplay with fellow Perth DJ Blade.

By the time Finatik had reached eighteen, he had accomplished what most high school students had only dreamed of, and had acquainted himself with some of hip hop’s biggest names such as DJ Premier, Method Man & Redman, Jurassic 5, Black Eyed Peas, Mix Master Mike etc...

During this time, Finatik continued to broaden his skills and decided that he wanted to be more involved in creating and developing the beats that he had become so used to playing on the decks weekly at resident nightclubs of up to 5,000 people all around Australia and Asia. Word spread fast that this popular young DJ had retired from battles and would be pursuing his production career.

About Zac

Zac had the same drive and musical talent as Finatik, and had started producing music at the age of fifteen. His years of learning the piano and drums as a child were paying off, and he began to share his genuine talent with local artists, allowing him to perfect his craft. At nineteen, Finatik’s radio show co-host, Joel Brown, envisaged a power-house producing duo and began to shop their beats to various artist managers in the US which led to signing with Grammy award winning producer "Jim Jonsin".

Current works

2013 proved to be a major year for the duo working with Wiz Khalifa, Big Krit, Machine Gun Kelly, Yelawolf, Rico Love, Casey Veggies, Waka Flocka Flame, Chevy Woods, Kevin Gates, Diamond, Leroy Sanchez, Tiara Thomas, DJ Dahi and Corin (Purity Ring).
