Track of the Week: Senditt… Building DnB from the Warehouse Floor

Interview with Corey Townsend (Senditt) for his recently released tune and our Track of The Week 'Tonight'

He records construction sounds on his forklift and turns them into heavy basslines. Meet Senditt, the Bunbury-raised DJ bringing industrial energy to the Perth underground.

For Corey Townsend (aka Senditt), inspiration doesn’t come from a pristine studio. It comes from the warehouse floor.

Originally from Bunbury and now fully immersed in the Perth scene, Senditt has only been DJing for two years, but his approach to sound design is already deeply environmental. Working daily as a forklift driver in a massive warehouse, he absorbs the mechanical chaos around him and translates it directly into his music.

“My voice memo app is always full of ideas that I am yet to execute,” he explains, describing his sonic vibe as a “construction site” full of raw, metallic noise.

That industrial grit is all over our Track of the Week: his latest release, “Tonight.” We sat down with Senditt to discuss his shift away from “mainstream” sounds, the rising issue of nepotism in the local scene, and why he recently decided to play an entire set with zero doubles.


🏗️ The Construction Site Sound

Senditt’s production is defined by heavy experimentation. Right now, he is dialing in reese basses, metallic wobbles, and playing heavily with flangers and formants.

But his biggest piece of advice for newcomers has nothing to do with plugins.

“Find your sound, find what you love, then take it and be different about it,” he advises. “If you’re serious about music… learn production first. Learning to DJ after producing for a while is way easier. That is something I wish I did.”

He also lives by a simple, uncompromising mantra: Second drops matter. “We live in a world where people have the attention span of a goldfish… after the first drop, most people come to their decision. People have to learn to appreciate the craft of a song.”


🚫 The “No Doubles” Experiment

While his sound is heavy (drawing inspiration from Kanine, Culture Shock, and Sota), his approach to reading a crowd is highly dynamic. He likes to break up intense 20-minute runs with massive singalongs.

Recently, at Freo Social, he took this to the extreme.

“I played a very exclusive Sunset Singalong Set which featured no doubles, no jump up, no Senditt intensity,” he says. “It was very fun dancing with such an awesome crowd. I might keep this ‘no doubles’ thing happening.”


🗣️ The Scene: Spoiled but Guarded

Senditt is quick to praise Perth’s current DnB ecosystem. “We are absolutely spoiled with events,” he notes, giving massive credit to major organizers for keeping the city on the map despite rising inflation.

However, he isn’t afraid to call out the friction points. His one major “ick” for the local scene right now?

“How the scene locally is turning nepotistic.”


🔊 The Track: Tonight

His featured track, “Tonight,” is a heavy hitter currently available as a Free Download via Divine DNB.

The track was a battle of bass patterns, ultimately cracked by finding the perfect call-and-response rhythm. Built using Serum2, OTT, Sausage Fattener, and maximized for impact with the Endless Smile VST on the buildup, it’s a track designed to rattle the warehouse.
