Jonty SkruFFF started DJing in 2004, rapidly picking up residencies at London´s fabric (DTPM) and Pacha Ibiza. Moving to Berlin in 2008, he’s nowadays well established within Berlin’s underground tech/ house scene, becoming a resident at Sisyphos in 2012.

Rapidly becoming one of Sisyphos' best known DJs, he's renowned for spinning uniquely eclectic, deep techno (and occasional house) sets, created by looping, layering and re-editing tracks together live, simultaneously on three and often four CDJs.

Back in London he's since teamed up with new UK label What Came First to release double-tracker Jellyfish Invasion/ Warpaint (including a tough techno remix from Mute legend Daniel Miller), following on from previous releases on Sisyphos’ label (Sisyphon) and acclaimed remixes on Black Butter, Punch Music and Shitkatapult (his remix of Motor’s ‘Death Rave’ picking up a French Quartz Award (equivalent to a French GRAMMY). 

He also co-produces and co-presents the weekly radio show Berlin Soul, which is broadcast across an expanding international network spanning 55 terrestrial FM stations plus web broadcasters including Pioneer DJ Radio (Ibiza), Underground FG (France), BLN.FM (Germany) and Dance Paradise (Brazil / South America). He's also widely recognised for his parallel multi-faceted career that started in the 90s when he became of the first specialist dance music journalists.

Selecting him as one of their '11 most important people in Berlin's music scene' feature in 2015, Dutch magazine DJBroadcast suggested ‘you probably know Skrufff best for his residency at legendary club Sisyphos’ though singled out his media activities for additional special mention.

‘Skrufff’s international presence combined with his broad range of expertise has led him to be acclaimed as an‘industry guru’ (Resident Advisor) and ‘dance music mogul’ (DJ Magazine),” DJBroadcast noted.

Alongside helping launch Muzik magazine in the UK he created a unique global syndication network that included 6 Australian nightlife street newspapers, Brazilian, Italian and Thai style/ music magazines and even European TV network Superchannel (where for 2 years he interviewed virtually all the remaining living jazz legends including Wynton Marsalis, Sonny Rollins, Chick Corea and Weather Report for a TV show called Talkin Jazz.

Switching to the internet early (in 1996 he set up the first major label club culture site Dancesite for EMI) he next went fully independent in 2001, pioneering e-zines and blogging via his own operation Skrufff.com. 

He has also since curated numerous music conferences including Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE), Sochi Winter Music Conference (Russia), IPM (Rome) and Rio Music Conference (Brazil) and regularly speaks on panels worldwide.
