Thony Ekström
Under artist names as; "Ekström" (Hard Techno, Techno,) & "LowTekk" ( ~120-130 BPM LowTekk Sound )
First Time.
Heard his First electronic music in the year 1994 at the age of 12. It was simple dance music actually like E-type. And from there it got harder and harder until he found trance, (not so hard but harder then dance anyway). But in late 1998 he also found Hardcore from the label ID&Ts Thunderdome.
He listen too that for a few months, almost a year, but it was not hard "enough".
Hardtrance Years turned Hard Techno.
And in a way he missed the trancy feeling too...
So in late 1999 he heard a hardtrance set with DJ Scot Project. And he was amazed at the tune Overdrive produced by scot project (Frank Zenker). He listen too hardtrance and darktrance for almost 2-3 years. BUT in summer-autumn 2002, he downloaded a Hardsignal.com set with DJ Amok. And he was again amazed at the sound and evilness. And that same year he started too produce with the program Frutiy loops and has only produced with that program. Even listen too industrial Hardcore and some darkcore these days and it´s good inspirations styles.
Produceing starts and harder sounds will be made.
So he started too look and look and look for more music that had that evil feeling sound, and getting “better” at producing (he believed). At the moment he did not know that it was Hard techno he wanted too listen to (and even produce). But in spring/summer 2003, it came like a gift sent from above!. He heard several sets from producers and Djs like, Frank Kvitta, Mario Ranieri, Viper XXL and Sven Wittekind etc etc.
He started also too get the main points down how too produce the hard techno style!...
Buys his own computer for produceing, and improve his sounds.
He also lived with his older brother, so he borrowed his computer for producing. But something happen with the damn computer and it crashed and his brother forbid Thony too produce on it, he said that he have to buy his own computer. So in August Thony bought his own computer parts and another producer friend helped him too put it together, and then produced a tune named “Lets Schranz Your Brain Out” and it was the first tune for a looong time, almost 4 months. And people really enjoyed it. Tune after tune he improved himself!.
The homebase is here, promoting others will start too.
In December 2003 and January 2004 he fix a homepage with the help of a good friend. And the site
Ekström-Productions.mine.nu was born. And almost all (90%) of his tunes is on there, so go there and listen to the early productions of the producer of tomorrow
. On the site you will also find other producers tracks, not only techno. And many other things!. Whole of 2004 has been a good year for Ekström, good productions, almost signed, and it’s a matter of time before he will get signed as well.
These Days and the network growing bigger!.
And in the meantime he has made a big network of sites and producers who link too him and he link to them. In late 2004 he have had several tunes played by a few DJs as well. He thinks that 2005 is going to be his year!... At the 1st of January 2005 he released yet another site http://www.tekkno-sweden.se a forum for hard techno freaks. An international and swedish home for the hard techno dudes. And it’s growing larger and larger. He also plan too be a DJ somewhere in 2005, so BEWARE!!!...
