Mijk van Dijk is one of Berlin’s original techno architects, shaping the city’s raw, transformative ’90s scene. He developed his signature sound as a resident at the seminal Tresor and E-Werk, satisfying the cravings of the dancefloor with hypnotic grooves and melodies that blend the cerebral and visceral.
His project Marmion delivered the genre-defining anthem “Schöneberg”, a track tracing the euphoric edges of techno and trance that has resonated with generations of dancers and remixers. The iconic compilation “Tranceformed From Beyond”, created with Cosmic Baby on Mark Reeder’s MFS label set a visionary course for trance music. His debut solo album “Afreuropamericasiaustralica” explored futuristic themes of unity and environmental consciousness, years ahead of its time.
Beyond Berlin, Mijk’s influence spans the globe, with Japan holding a special connection to his work. Releases on Sony Music and Frogman Records have cultivated a dedicated following, while collaborations with Takkyu Ishino (Denki Groove) and iconic gaming soundtracks for “Ghost in the Shell” and “Ridge Racer V” made his music a defining part of the scene.
As a live act or behind the decks, Mijk’s performance is pure passion and raw energy. His genre-bending sets blend live drum machines and effects to always deliver a fresh, exclusive experience. He collaborates with artists across disciplines, channeling his experimental side in the Liquid Sky Collective – a global network of innovators exploring the darker and wilder edges of electronic ambient, acid, and hardcore.
Mijk’s authentic sound resonates deeply with its blend of sophistication and force. He fuses relentless techno rhythms with hypnotic acid lines and evocative melodies for a dynamic and immersive sonic storytelling, shifting easily from deep, driving grooves to euphoric highs, drawing listeners into his world.
His most important collaborations currently include his annual floats at Berlin’s “Rave the Planet” parade (organized by his microglobe collective together with Volume Berlin Records) and his recently released highly acclaimed album with Tom Wax “From XS to Eternity”.
