Biography
Musician, producer, DJ and label-owner extraordinary. Not because DJ Phoney could afford a rolex and an expensive suit or was the definite virtuoso but because of the amount of emotion and content he puts in his music.
Having a backbone and not kneeling down to any trend, scene or ruler is the major concept behind Phoneys philosophy and music.
He won`t be using any handclaps in hiphop because it´s common, he won`t turn the distortion to maximum in a guitar-tune because most do, he won`t do no dancehall because that´s what´s called reggae today. And he sure won`t bow down to no government because the neighbours do.
Phoney did about 300 DJ-sets within the last years and worked on tracks almost every single day. He also runs the small but dedicated 'Phoney Tapes'-label.
