| Jonteknik Music Online Shop (click this link to buy CDs) Buy 'Tones From Home 1994-1999' album from itunes - available now!! Buy the 'Intuitive Scientists e.p.' from itunes - available now!! Jonteknik has been creating electronic music since 1988 when he discovered Kraftwerk and Jean-Michel Jarre. Back then the music was created on an Amiga computer with a tracker program. Soon progressing through Cubase on the Atari ST and finally finding the joy of Apple Mac, Jonteknik started with Logic and now uses Pro-tools LE with a variety of soft synths and plug-ins. The first release came in 1994 on Desy Balmer's 'Nice & Nasty' label. This was the 'Tanzmusik e.p' created up in Manchester's 'Out of the Blue' studio, now sadly gone. Jonteknik joined forces with Kraftwerk enthusiast Mark 'Staggman' Stagg and Andy Sturmey who is responsible for many of Jontekniks CD cover images. Gaining respect from the press, such as Melody maker, Future music, Music Technology, MT and The Mix, Jonteknik was crafting his own sound around the heavy influences of those great pioneers from Düsseldorf. It was soon discovered by the world's coolest Belgian and writer/producer Pascal Gabriel who helped Jonteknik sharpen production skills. Pascal introduced Jonteknik to Claudia Brücken. They both corresponded by post. A simple demo was recorded around 1993 called 'Ohm from ohm'. Jonteknik also had the pleasure of meeting up with Holly Johnson in the mid 1990's. A few ideas were put together and there was a lot of music chat. Holly showed Jonteknik that songs worked with the right structure. An acoustic performance of 'Relax' and 'Love train' demonstrated this exactly! More recently Jonteknik worked with Paul Humphreys and Claudia Brücken on their 'Onetwo' project. Jonteknik co-wrote and co-produced several tracks and even dabbled with lyrics. One of the highlights for Jon was getting to program percussion and synths on a track that has Martin Gore from Depeche Mode on guitar! It was a hard time for Jon as issues beyond his control were making life complicated. To this day Jon holds the times of working with Paul Humphreys as a great memory, especially creating 'The theory of everything'. WORK WITH ONETWO The theory of everything - part 1 (co-writer + Programmer) The theory of everything - part 2 (co-writer + Programmer + some lyrics) Cloud 9 (featuring Martin Gore) (Programmer) Signals ('item' version) - (co-writer + Programmer) Signals ('Instead' version) - (co-writer) Element of truth - (co-writer + Programmer) Sister - (Programmer) (One and only) Sister - (Programmer) + various unreleased material. Now Jon looks towards the future and as well as working with vocalists/writers on a brand new album, there are releases of older material being released to introduce you to the sound of Jonteknik. http://www.jonteknikmusic.com |
