Born in 1975 in Münster, Germany, Klystron became infected with Techno in 1992. Soon he realized that the parties
were not enough to him,
and he started first attempts in DJing (with record players definitely not suitable for that purpose) and
music production (on an Amiga 500 with its 8-bit 4-channel sound chip). Later on, he could afford his first
synthesizer and Technics players. In the mid-90s, he played mostly on
private events, as a DJ and also as the live act "Praktoklyss". He also organized own parties in Münster;
some of them took place under a highway bridge. Klystron is a member of the
demoscene group
Scienide and contributed music to some of their works.
After moving to Berlin in 2002, most of his creativity had to be
concentrated on preparing his PhD in physics, and there was not very much time left for making music. On the other
hand, the frequent Breakbeat parties in Berlin convinced him that Breaks are definitely his favourite style of
electronic music. After moving to Garching near Munich in 2006, the DJing and producing activity was refreshed.
Particularly motivating was the enhancement of possibilities due to the great invention of
Serato Scratch Live, which permits playing digital
soundfiles and own tracks together with vinyl.
