Biography
Only one year ago Jonas Imbery started to release his energetic, but very dirty & funky futuristic house music project TELONIUS. This project is influenced by the early House and 90 ies Euro/Disco-House and Techno aesthetics without being old fashioned. Far from it! Telonius is producing futuristic House Music. In an intelligent way he is recycling elements of the past and is creating an own new sexy sound. People loved it immediately and a lot of artists started to ask for remixes. The records of Telonius are among the most popular Gomma maxis ever. The first two singles “Like What” and “Disco Tec” went straight the Top Ten in German Club Charts for couple of weeks. And the latest single “Hit Me”, a cover of Ian Dury’s classic “Hit Me With A Rhythm Stick”, was requested by more and more DJ’s so Gomma finally decided to release it.. it’s still a hit in the clubs. His new single “Now I Do”, a body shaking monster, recently released but already on the best way to get the summer tune in the clubs from Helsinki to Cape Town and Los Angeles to Vladivostok.
