The Infrared Podcast /// EP253// Ft. Andrew Wilding
-------------------------------------
Andrew’s journey into DJing started five years ago when a friend from Sydney introduced him to mixing. After one spontaneous session on CDJs, he quickly got hooked—mixing nearly every weekend for two years.

His first festival experience was Odysee, and his debut bush set followed soon after at Intergalactic Groove 2. Since then, Andrew has performed regularly at bush doofs, hosted events in Geraldton, and moved to Perth to immerse himself fully in the scene.

In 2024, he launched his first outdoor event with two crew members. In 2025, Andrew debuted his new project NO MERCI, a personal exploration of dirty prog, a gritty, dark progressive sound that reflects his evolving style and vision.

He’s already produced seven original tracks with custom-designed basslines and has another outdoor event lined up later this year, featuring an international guest making their Australian debut.
