About Me

------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------- EarDrumKru (EDK) became to life in 1996 as an experimental project of three DJs (Matthew, Loggo and Base) and programmer Michal Ilias. The sound of EDK was heavily influenced by the projects like the Prodigy, Altern 8, Human Resource, SL2, Shamen, Moby or KLF. Musical tastes of EDK were very diverse (Matthew / trip-hop, ambient, electronica/, Loggo / techno, electro, house/, Base /jungle, drum..n..bass, trance/). Joining these styles EDK created a unique series of ‘underground parties’ (1996-2000) which can be marked as the starting point of so called ‘scene’ in central Slovakia and later led to their own musical production. The juicy diversity can be heard and felt on the albums like “Influences”( 1998 )“Inshure Your Stuff”(1999) or “20 Sympathetic Girls”(1999). They start to dedicate their productivity especially to drum n bass. In the year 2000 EDK recorded purely drum n bass album “Steps”(2000) from which four tracks were used for the 12” EP of the same name. The spirit was alive and ready to move on. In cooperation with Czech Headliner Recordings their track “We Have The Smith”(1999) appeared at a vinyl sampler, which was the last common act of the old four-band-member-formation.
In 2001 Michal left the band and starts his individual career as Peter G. Hawkens. Three original members continued to produce music and good mood. After the album “Three Lo Beat”(2001) was EDK very often invited to play as a live act which led to logical ‘enlivement’ of the band.
By 2002 multi-instrumentalist Peter "The Hary" joined the band. This fact encouraged them to continue in breaking the boundaries of musical experimentation and developing of new sound of EDK. A hybridization of breakbeat, dub, electro, jungle through ethno and guitar trip-hop started to be ‘cooked’ at EDK’s sound kitchen.
EarDrumKru cooperates with a wide variety of other artists as well: Tina "Wunna" (vocals), Dada from Nové Mapy (vocals) and Matej Štesko (guitar). From genuine electronic project is now a band, which offers dynamic live performance, soundsystem or pure DJsets full of broken beats, jungle sounds mixed with dub and triphop. People in Slovakia, Czech Republic and Austria had a chance to see EDK within past ten years at a number of well known festivals and events many times. (POHODA FESTIVAL,BARBAKAN,LOVE PLANET,HODOKVAS FESTIVAL,DOWNLOAD,and many more..)In March 2008 EDK released the "Fanki Faka Dancers" album on their own label Schyzo Recordings.
