Brought up in a circle of musicians (his sister a professional piano player, father pro am. violinist and conductor as well as a Phd on Folklore) Toton was encouraged to pick up an instrument; piano and acoustic guitar where about to become his passion but the invention of Commodore 64, video games, arcades and other gadgets prevailed his interest in musical instruments. Growing up to heavy metal hardcore punk and industrial sounds of Laibach, The Swans, Front 242 and alike he found out that this was the direction he was interested on. The early 90's rave and acid mixed with industrial hard core punk such Agnostic Front molded into the shape of technologically advanced Pitch shifter troubled him into such way that he decided to trouble himself into studying sound engineering . While studying in London around 1997-99 he developed an interest in liking the music he used to dislike, house music and its underground genres.
