O-NINEEIGHT is the Hard Dance/ Techno project of producer/DJ Ozan Karabaki (formerly Version 34).
His explosive sound is built on a paradox of precision and chaos, contributing to the relentless evolution of modern Hard Dance
music.
O-NINEEIGHT’s signature sound pairs heavy bass architecture with a seamless fusion of Early Hardstyle, Tekno, Trance and
Acid, resulting in an energy-packed Hard Rave sound that moves seamlessly from underground warehouses to massive festival crowds.
O-NINEEIGHT’s tracks command attention globally through consistent support from industry heavyweights like Restricted, 999999999, I Hate Models, Nico Moreno, Azyr, Charlie Sparks, and others, with feature plays on the world’s biggest stages
like Tomorrowland MainStage and Ultra Resistance. His releases include those on labels Revive Records, ENERGIC, Elektra,
NINETIMESNINE, and No Mercy.
O-NINEEIGHT’s mission is clear: to push his own boundaries and leave a permanent mark on the global hard techno landscape.
