Donk Boys

Donk Boys are two mentally okay guys from Malmö, Sweden, who make mentally sometimes not so okay music. The boys, both with a bunch of solo EPs out on their own (as Bauri/Deltidseskapism and Thomas Jaldemark), joined forces in their shared flat to produce their special donk sound. Bored by (some of) today's generic techno sounds, they try to distinguish themselves by incorporating humour, freaky sounds and twisted arrangements to their tracks.
