Biographie
The "Funky Dualism" - team met the first time for itself approximately 8 years ago. "Christoph & Andi" became the best friends straight away and are to be found at every good party since then, however always in the doubles-pack. On the basis of their sibling-similar friendship, the two divide "almost" everything together, but something that connects them the most, is the love & passion for music.Christoph Viela was reared with music. His eight year older brother influenced him already in the tender age of 3 years with the most required Tracks at that time and shoved him into the correct direction, to Electronic Music. So, further influence-sizes were his Dad, who has been an enthusiastic concert-musician for over 42 years now and gave the interest in mastering music-instruments consequently to him, as well as on the other hand his brother, who shaped for about 10 years the Drums and Percussions of an upper-Austrian orchestra. For these reasons Christoph learned to play the Trumpet and the combined Drum-work and the Percussions and still masters this.
Andreas a.k.a "Andi", also began to be interested in music already very early. If someone is with him to visit, there is not any "quiet minute", because music runs at his home in the 24 hour-bar. That has always been this way. As "Andi" got his first PC, his interests were in the manipulation of music. He found big joy at that time in cutting miscellaneous Tracks together, as well as., to change them, that it sounds good for the ear and is unique. Even bigger joy made the acknowledgment of his Tracks by friends of him. However it soon became the total too static for him and he wanted to take something dynamic in attack. So, he explained CD-Players, Mixers and Turntables for the first time to himself. Like one sees, that was the right step into the correct direction.
Their performance behind the decks is characteristic for Funky Dualism. "Standing still", plain and simple isn’t available, because they hate nothing more, as unmotivated, monotonious DJ-ing. Themselves, they hold the view: "The public is maximum as well on it, as well you are, even as a DJ, on itâ€.
In the meantime, since the year 2005, they are residents in the most required club “Circo Maximus†in Wels, together with Two Dollars and have already rocked the remaining Welser clubscene on occasion.

Since 2006, they are hosting the "ELEKTRONIKUM" - Events, every saturday in upper austria. The concept is very simple. It’s all about the love of electronic music, like minimal, electro and techno. The "Elektronikum" - Events are unique in Wels. There’s no other club, where this kind of music is played in this town.
