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 aka Benjamin Weiss & 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 28 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 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. In 2006 they released the 12 3 Yoyodyne EP on VRecords
and the 2 x 12 3 Pattern Drill on Bomzh. 2007 saw the release of the
Radiator Rabiator EP on Toktok Records, the last release to date was the Nosebleep
EP on Toktok Records in april 2008.
