The Tunk,finds his roots in the early 90..s punkrock. After having settled in Berlin, he got involved in the local squatter scene and later the „reclaim the streets“-movement, then followed years of excess. He started to create his own beats during the big raves 98/99 and in eastern europe. 99..he bought his first keyboard and 2001 the first 12“ record on his own label ..Dogcity records.. was released. Since then he had played livesets all over europe and also in South America, where he performed 2005 and 2011 on the Bogotrax-Festival in Bogota, Colombia, amongst other locations in this area. Have a look at bogotrax.org From his mostly analogue-based sound he switched to digital modular synths like Synthedit and Reaktor, where he also put his hands on instrument design. (The instruments are being released under his real name Mike Woloszyn. The sound is hard, fast and very electronic and a bit unconventional. „Hard Tekno“ with influences of „Acid“ and „D..n..B“is a clever description. And his name is „The Tunk“ and not Trunk, Trank, Tank or Tonk rather „The Tunk“ means Tekno-Punk
