Teknical

Coming from Birmingham, England, Teknical was born into the Drum and Bass scene with his father being DJ Shape. Travelling with his younger brother up and down the country, Teknical found himself sat in various studios listening to Shapes sets every week. His father then bought him his first controller for his 13th birthday and within a few months he was playing his debut set B2B with Shape on DnbRadio. 6 months later he had upgraded to playing live on the famous Technic 1210s. Now at the age of 18, he regularly plays back to back Father and Son sets every week on Bloc2Bloc Entertainment Radio and DnbRadio. Teknical has also recorded podcasts for the underground clothing company More Superior Wear aswell as various Charity sets and house partys.

Having listened to DnB and DJd live for years, the musical itch grew stronger and Teknical soon found himself looking into making his own sounds. At the time, his other passion of training Muay Thai for over 10 years took up most of the families time, with Teknical himself reaching a top level, and helping pad and spar his younger brother to reach the same levels with both brothers fighting and beating English, European, and World Champions. Breaking his pelvis in a fight (which he still won) finally gave Teknical the time to sit down and put some time into producing. After getting some of his dubs played out by some big DJs over the past year, Teknical had his first official release on the well known Vandal Records
