TOKTOK 'LIVE PA' [ BERLIN / GERMANY . TOK TOK REC. ]
Founded in 1994 in Europe’s techno capital, Toktok creates original soundscapes, expanding modern style boundaries. Toktok is renowned for their ‘live performances’, which entailed bringing the studio, synthesizers, drumcomputers, effects, and an enormous mixing console, to the party. Innumerable performances and 23 record releases later, their evolved sound is dedicated to making you dance.
MICHA KLANG [ NÜRNBERG / GERMANY . PASO MUSIC . MOTHERSHIP ]
Micha Klang's style is marked by a love for long sets of minimal, textured tech-house and crunchy, crispy techno beats. Originating in Nürnberg in the late ‘90s, Micha Klang quickly broke ground with his ‘Mothership’ event. ‘Summership’, an open air event in an old castle was attended by thousands. ‘Mothership’ recently celebrated its 6th Anniversary, headlining Sven Vath, and today Micha Klang runs his label ‘Paso Music’ with Spallek, Sebrok, and Marc Miroir.
JUSTIN SCHUMACHER [ BROOKLYN . GOTHAM GROOVES ]
This young emerging dj/producer from the land of crooks is steadily gaining local praise for his ass-shaking, thought provoking sets. His style ranges from deep and mental, to dancefloor phunk, to straight dark bangin madness. There is no monotony, just an evolving journey through this elaborate music we call techno.
MIKO [ PHILADELPHIA . f(x) ]
In 1993 Miko brought his blend of funky house and disco to The Freight Yard and established himself as a resident deejay there. This club was located in a warehouse in Allentown, PA and is known for the legendary all night events and weeklies that took place when the rave scene was starting up in the US. At a time when techno music was the standard, Miko defied the norm by giving the crowd an awesome house set while at the same time keeping interest through a unique energy of driving techno sounds.
VEX [ PHILADELPHIA . f(x) ]
With a mysterious past, ranging from former KGB agent to founding father of the Illuminati, not much is known about Vex. He shows up, does as asked, and makes a prompt exit while leaving no traces, aside from the occasional person seeking the name of a track he played. People who know his true identity describe him as "A tall, short, white black fat skinny man with blue black green short long hair, and brown blue eyes. Oh, and he's really into Toblerone"

TOKTOK [ sample audio ]

Toktok is a project of the artists Nerk, Anton Waldt, C14 and Fabian Feyerabendt from the german techno capital Berlin. At the moment, Toktok has slimmed down to the artists Nerk & Fabian Feyerabendt with some occasional joining of Stefan Kuechenmeister.
It was founded in 1994, emerging out of the prosperous free party scene at that time where the Toktok members organized Parties together with the legendary Spiral Tribe Sound System. From the beginning on, Toktok focused on playing techno mostly live, plugging the whole studio (including a large amount of synthesizers, drumcomputers, effects and an enormous mixing console) in at the party location and going for a wild jam that would last up to 24 hours.
Out of the large amount of Live Gigs throughout the years, Toktok developed their very own style that would break the boundaries of style definitions such as techno, electro, house or hardcore, illustrated by their 23 releases so far.
In the beginning of the new century Toktok met Soffy O and they teamed up to form Toktok vs. Soffy O. Their first track together “Missy Queen ´s Gonna Die” was a huge club hit and resulted in a deal with East West / Warner Music. After releasing their second big hit “Day Of Mine” and the album “Toktok vs Soffy O”, winning the German Dance Award and three years of intense touring all over Europe, Russia and Japan, the three decided to take a little break but continue to play together outside germany.
In 2004 Toktok recorded the single “Bang Bang” together with Nena that came out on their imprint Toktokrecords and Warnermusic. Later that year they put out an acid ep on the legendary acid label DJ.Ungle Fever. 2005 saw Toktok with two new releases so far : the “Koerperteile EP” on Bomzh Records and the “Den Den Den Remixes” on their own label Toktok Records.
