When in 1992 Matt K was fascinated by electronic dance music he had his contacts with the new century’s club music. At this time the Mainzer (borned in Poland/Nysa moved to Germany/Mainz) was engaged with HipHop and the House music of the 70 th , which he celebrated in his first residential club the Mainz Caveaux. Excited by the upcoming club music, the Techno style, he continued his DJ career in Wiesbaden basement and even than fascinated the people first as appetizer but soon with the main program.
By that ever better known in Wiesbaden area, the DJ through his innovative and excessive work got a first chance to host at XXL Nightgroove in 2000, followed by a guest performance at the Bonzai-Label-Party at the Bingen Palazzo, where he earned a lasting engagement in the same place.
Named MAK II also in 2000 together with his studio partner Martin Adams they had their first release with the label Over-X-Posure. Together with DJ Mab and Martin Adams renamed to Ohrwerk-Orange and recorded the track Werk1-first orange at the label compilation 10 Jahre Overdrive. This was followed by the first single F.D.G. of the project Ohrwerk Orange also labelled by Overdrive. After that he remixed different performers like Mac Green (Overdrive) and Voodooman (Highball Rec.), soon followed by two releases called Orange House and labelled by Cherry Poppers.
His numerous performances and extensive work in the Mainz and Wiesbaden area brought him already in 2000 into the at this time cuetest club- of whole Frankfort , the U60311. And there and with his program he heated up the people at the first Terminal M-Party. From this time with a permanent program the sympathetic Mainzer plays at U60311 with the who-is-who of Techno.
