Amplification Project

Miko Szatko is a Glasgow-based electronic musician, artist, and DJ, also known as TRSSX. He got his MFA in Sound from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2016 and has worked extensively within the club scenes of New York, Krakow, and Glasgow, currently running the artist space and club EXIT established in 2023. In his performances and compositions, he creates environments that defragment language and speech of disembodied sampled, artificial, and cloned voices, critically employing modular processing and various DJ tropes. He performed internationally in the US, the UK, Denmark, Poland, and Germany.

As a co-founder of EXIT Glasgow, he is researching the cyclical narratives of club death and their connection to amplification technologies, recurring modes of techno music and the mythologies surrounding club sound systems.
