Biography

Gordon Huntley & Erick Muise joined forces as Botnek back in 2008 in Halifax, Nova Scotia through a shared love for house music. Soon after forming a strong friendship through similar musical interests, the project was formed which led to a string of releases with up & coming fidget & electro house labels, catching the attention of Dim Mak Records & Steve Aoki. Their viral edit of Martin Garrix's Animals was the catalyst for the next chapter in their career. The duo began touring internationally & more singles for Dim Mak followed, along with another viral remix for The Chainsmokers' #SELFIE which really put Botnek on the map. Since then Botnek have toured the globe in almost every continent & have played on some of the biggest festival stages in the world. In the summer of 2017 they felt an urge to evolve their sound back to the roots of the project & released a song called Don't Need U on their own label World Famous Headquarters. The track had the quirky house sound they bonded over when they first met & shared such a deep love for. From there, the duo has released a number of tracks in this musical vein. In 2018, Botnek launched World Famous Radio on SiriusXM’s Insomniac Radio, as a sort of homage to the radio shows they first loved on BBC Radio 1. In the fall of 2018 they opened the doors of World Famous Headquarters to outside artists. The label's sound will consist of Botnek's filter of wacky house music inspired by those early fidget & electro house days.
