About

UMEK, born Uroš Umek in Ljubljana, Slovenia in 1976, stands as one of the most prolific figures in European techno. The Slovenian producer has operated under multiple aliases including Zeta Reticula, Mumps, and Ratcapa throughout his career. In 2007, he founded his own imprint 1605 Music Therapy, establishing a platform for his continuous output and cementing his position as both artist and label owner.

UMEK's sound centers on peak time driving techno and tech house, with 173 documented releases spanning from 2009 to 2014 across various tempos and intensities. His productions range from minimal deep tech to full-throttle peak time techno designed for main room dance floors, consistently delivering the driving rhythms and precise engineering that define contemporary European techno. The artist also explores deeper territories through house and deep house releases, demonstrating technical versatility while maintaining the energetic foundation that characterizes his 1605 Music Therapy catalog.

Also records as: Zeta Reticula, Mumps, Ratcapa
