Dystronic is a one-man project from Augsburg (South-Germany), founded by Thomas Robert alias Freezy. The musical history of Dystronic began with electronic music (new wave), metal and punk. In the whole 80's he moved into the punk- and crustcore-scene. At that time he played drums in two punk-bands and wrote articles for a punk-fanzine. From 1988 on, he extended his musical preferences with grindcore, death metal and doom. From 1994-1995 he played drums in a grindcore-band. Since he never concentrated his musical preferences to only one style, he re-discovered electronic music in 1995 (especially electro, but also dark-ambient, acid and drum&bass). From the beginning involved in the Kommando 6 event-series, he decided in 2001 to start producing his own electro(nic) tracks as Dystronic and released these preferably on the Kommando 6 label till Kommando 6 stopped action at the end of 2006. Besides his solo-project, Dystronic is involved in two further projects:
Black Spider Clan (with
Beta Evers) and
Radikale Analog Fraktion (with Johnny Vendetta). Additionally he produces videos and visuals as Dystronic and under the alias Syskin. In 2004 he founded the local network
Simulacron.
