Pikaya

Producer/DJ team based in Berlin.

During their youthful escapades of the 90s their ways kept crossing. Frank Greiner has started spinning records his spare time since 1993. At his first parties he discovered his passion for electronic club music and other musical extravaganzas. In 1995 he played his first DJ set in a Club in Frankfurt/ Oder where he met Daniel. Daniel was so intrigued by his sophisticated mix of dub, trip hop, rock and jazz, that after a thrilling conversation they immediately became friends.

Daniel is obsessed by programming music since 1993. Based upon a simple set-up consisting of Amiga computer, sampler and synth he later did several live sets in the region of Brandenburg.

In 1999 Daniel and Frank moved to Berlin independently. Their love for electronic music, however, brought them together again. Pikaya is the result of the musical journey of the two young men, who have clipped their heads and machines together since 2000. On the way they constantly grabbled with their respective ideas, but still managed to arrange them.

Actually Frank and Daniel are playing the Pikaya live-set all over in Europe.
