    Format B biog

    Jakob is a Berliner, from Kreuzberg to be exact. As all good parents
    do, his wanted him to play an instrument. After years of successfully
    dodging music lessons and his parent’s wishes, he finally at the
    subtle age of 15 decided that he desperately needed a bass guitar,
    which then through diligent practice manoeuvred him from hardcore
    bands to funk and jazz bands. But suddenly, there was a small problem:
    he liked Techno parties much better than rock concerts.So, as one
    does, he began buying the odd techno maxi here and there until one day
    little Jakob thought to himself: “Why heck, I can do that too!”

    So off he went and bought himself an overpriced Atari St40 and a cheap
    synthesizer, only to realize that oops those guys from Detroit really
    do know what they’re doing and that it wasn’t that easy after all.
    Well, that is basically where Jacob’s ambitiously planned out life
    suddenly took a screeching of the wheels turn in another direction….

    Franziskus is from Erfurt, a small and rural part of Germanys quite
    rough and wild East, which didn’t stop him from starting piano lessons
    at the innocent age of 6. His musical interests took him from the
    usual suspects like Michael Jackson and The Pet Shop Boys through to
    Hardcore (obviously not on the piano). But then one day, or night to
    be exact similar to Jakob, all was to suddenly change….. A fortuitous
    night out at the legendary E-Werk in 1993, made this young mans
    heartbeat skip from Chopin over to a 4/4 beat where it was to remain,
    probably forever.
    Three years later Franziskus took up residency at the infamous Sub
    ground Lighthouse After hour, resulting in numerous further bookings.

    The paths of these two young men crossed whilst they were both
    studying to be sound engineers. Seeing as all the other students in
    there year were long haired Metal heads it was only a matter of time
    until their paths crossed. So, after spending a few long Berlin party
    nights together they decided to see if they could start a project
    together. And so the story ends or better yet, begins with Format:B….
