When Manuel Anos (Psyk) was born in Madrid in 1987 he was already absorbing the sounds most electronics from his old brother, who was an indisputable fan of KRAFTWERK, DEPECHE MODE, MODEL 500 and the rest of pioneers of the scene. His attention was always called by the music in its more electronic point of view. When he was 15 years old he bought as he could a turntable and 2 decks ,obviously the cheapest brand and he started making his firsts sets in the world of techno music. Always influenced by the darkest sound of Detroit of the hands of SPEEDY J, JUAN ATKINS, KEVIN SAUNDERSON, DERRICK MAY and of course the master of the techno RICHIE HAWTIN.

The references of PLASTIKMAN and SLEEPARCHIVE always called his attention and one day watching the lord of 'decks, EFX&909' at live he knew he wanted to do something similar and big in the world of techno music. In 2005 he already started to move in illegal importants festivals and parties (also known as raves) and in small clubs. In 2007 he began his studies to became a sound engineer and started saving money to be able to buy his team of electronic music production. Only 8 months after producing music he got in contact with the label M_NUS. Richie Hawtin ,himself, got in contact with PSYK , telling him about a project that he had in mind for his label and that he wanted him to participate on it.

At the early age of 19 , he signed with the label M_NUS for his track 'CLOWN' for the project of Richie called "Sounds From Can Elles" (M71), top sales and charts during 5 months in the first positions. Richie, himself, talks about him in the international magazine DJ-MAG saying that he has one of the most powerful futures in minimal-techno scene. His releases on ENEMY REC (Dustin Zahn's label) and Figure (LENseries, with LEN FAKI) saw us his new point of view of techno music. All his references are calling the attention of too many clubbers in the world. Thanks to this realeases and full-of-power sets he is getting contracts in best clubs in Europe and America. His music can be heared in the sets of the best djs in the world. His dark and hypnotic techno dont let anyone indeferent. This is a dj to watch out the next few years.
