Starting as a raver, Maniak got more and more involved with the underground techno scene in Berlin by volunteering at parties and raves, eventually playing in them and organizing them in Berlin and Internationally. His love for techno leaves him unrestricted in where he plays - raves, podcasts, bars and clubs. His mixes draw from progressive, melodic, psychedelic and organic sounds - as long as it bends the mind and moves the body, Maniak delivers mental breaks to raving lunatics. His biggest accomplishments so far are co-organizing Sadorave in Spain, helping revitalize the Verguerete Collective in Berlin, as well as co-founding Obsqur.
