motik started spinning in 1992 at a small club in his home town Tuebingen alongside his mate David Gomez and guest DJ's such as Laurent Garnier or Dave Clarke. Full dance floors didn't beware him from being thrown out by the management because of "not playing hits". But word was spread and shortly after he got supported by his mentor Claus Bachor, by Stuttgarts Motor City Crew, by Alain Summervilles Fresh-Projekt, by Mick Wills' MB, by Partysan Magazine and a whole bunch of other people. motik then played in clubs all over Germany such as the legendary joints Ultraschall in Munich, Unbekanntes Tier, Red Dog and M1 in Stuttgart or Sensor Club in Cologne. His residencies include Claus Bachors Psycho Thrill, Maquina at substantial Depot in Tuebingen or Fresh in Stuttgarts darling M1.
He was also co-founder and editor of long running and influential ouk magazine.
He now lives in Berlin as a writer and artist (motikmotik.art).
