About Me

tekkaz (techno andy) has been making electronic music for over a decade from early days mixing cds,fx and tape loops in the chillout room in stoke’s famous dreadhead coffeshop - to regular appearances at legendary underground night monkee, playin for the most part from his rm1x sequencer and a3000 sampler and other bits of kit..
andy also played numerous times at the sunshine cafe - which expanded from an intimate all night venue - into a 500 capacity semi legal rave in a warehouse (which happened 3 nights a week in the city centre of stoke - for most of the late 90s) his most famous gigs were the 3 solstice parties he played
u can find links to them here - warning they are OLD mp3s from the days of the commodore amiga and mastering on cassette tape :O
since moving to a 90% virtual studio mid decade andy has found the joy of portability and has enjoyed playing out again.. most recently at LOAD which he co-founded with other stoke based producer - Mazzula
andy is also part of Inteliko - which is a project born of the internet where he collaborates with an american, phil thomas - digitalbeatsyndrome on electro-tek house beats.
for 2008 andy’s intention are to polish the tekkaz live sound and just to have more fun :)
he IS available for live performance,the costs of which are basically transport,someplace to stay and a bite to eat (tho obviously wads of cash and horny teenage fans would also be most welcome)
