Drumming on practically everything he could get his hands on, Erwin Peltenburg aka Bonkie Bonkie, played music ever since he was about 7 years old. Starting his musical carrier, playing snaredrums and percussion instruments at a local philharmonic orcestra he learned to perform in a group en keep rhythm.
At about 15 years old, he quitted this local career, getting more and more interested in hip-hop and dance.
It was at a party in Ardennes Belgium that he rediscouvered his talend for rhythm an drumming after seeing himself on an oldschool video8 camera film. Bonkie Bonkie got influenced after that time by Rick Angel, DeeJaying at Zodiak Commune and the numerous techno parties both organised as visited. It was at the old "blokhut parties" in Valkenswaard that his artist name was formed:
In his early twenties, Bonkie Bonkie has made two large bass drums himself out of wood, with black and white cow scins on them. The sheer sound of them could be heard kilometers away when played out in the open. Bonkie Bonkie, was litterly the sound that could be heard when banging with sticks both on the drums skin as on the side...bonkie-bonkie...bonkiebonkiebonk...his name was there, and always has been ever since.
Nowadays, Bonkie Bonkie performes on electonic drums, combined with the structure and all other elements that Ableton has to offer. Prerecorded tracks, together with live percussion makes his music both rhytmic as hypnotic:
