Where is USH from?

USH is Dutch DJ and producer Levi Klomp. His work sits on the raw, industrial side of hard techno, with a sound built around his own kick designs.

Biography

USH is the project of Dutch DJ and producer Levi Klomp. His early public recordings in 2022 include fast acid techno and club sets, followed by a more defined industrial sound. He produces, mixes and masters music alongside his DJ work, keeping his own material close to the centre of his sets.

He co-founded Altruism Records with SLVL. Their collaboration also extends to SLUSH, the name used for their back-to-back shows. The label and the shared performance project are separate parts of his work, connecting releases with the energy of two DJs trading tracks.

In 2025, USH introduced USH KICK SZN as a collection focused on the sound and variations of his signature kick. Longer sets reveal another side of that approach: Rotterdam Rave's official recording documents his All Night Long at Maassilo on 18 April 2026.
