Yoka was born in Hamburg in 1975, where he gained his first DJ
experiences in the rap and Britcore scenes in the early 90s. Cuts and
backspins with two Technics MK2 turntables were on the agenda, along
with his initial stage experiences with the school band. In the summer
of 1995, a transformative experience occurred when, as often happens
in the Goa scene, he found himself on his first Goa party by chance
and through detours. Instead of attending a Drum & Bass festival, he
ended up at Voov. and it became a "point of no return" for him. From
then on, Psytrance captivated him entirely. He had finally found
something that he couldn't find in various other scenes, something
that resonated with his own personality the most.
This led to influential event visits, such as the first Shiva Moon,
Pooja , opening party @ Gaswerk, or Antaro's birthday at Delirium
right next door. However, as a bass fetishist that he had always been,
Goa music quickly took a back seat.
