Full

perun is the project of Warsaw-based DJ Damian Gutowski. The name comes from the Slavic god of thunder; the official version is that he was shocked by electricity as a kid, and it has run in his blood ever since.

He started DJing in 2024 at Instytut Dźwięku in Warsaw, training under the wing of Avtomat. A year later: Hangar Festival 02, Salty Pleasure 8 at Hala Odra in Szczecin, a closing set for Placebo Collective, and events across multiple Polish cities.

Sets move through house, breaks, minimal, techno and electro, tracing a deliberate arc from warm foundations toward harder terrain: building slow, ending hard.

The crate is dark and almost entirely vocal-free, enriched with acid house and dub.

The collection comes from Bandcamp, Discogs and an old tape collection, with Tresor, Ostgut Ton, Running Back and Dekmantel as reference points.

He likes strawberries.
