Drumatik is Benjamin Klingemann, one of Switzerland's upcoming talents whose hard psychedelic trance has been rocking dancefloors and gaining a growing number of followers.

The 25 year-old half-German, half-American musician and producer has been attracted to rhythm and music ever since he can remember. His first drum kit at the age of three marked the practical beginning of a life-long passion. As a teenager, he perfected his play at the conservatory and became the drummer of a funk-rock band. He also started working in a music shop, a job that allows him to be in touch with new technologies in a professional setting.

At the end of the nineties, Benjamin discovered electronic music and began to dj in raves. Shortly afterwards, he was introduced into the parallel universe of psychedelic trance, where he was instantly attracted both to the evolution of new sounds and the richness of the psy-culture. He was hooked! The next few years saw Benjamin a.k.a. Dj Smart Side, spinning the decks at a growing number of parties and festivals in Switzerland and Europe.

The next natural steps were a computer, a studio and the need to go further and produce his own sound with the help of his solid rhythmic background. At the beginning of 2004, the DRUMATIK project was born!
