As the years went by he tried producing almost every style of electronic music like techno, trance, electro, breakbeat, drum n’bass, hardcore, house, dance, downtempo, minimal, schranz… and through years of hard work and gaining experiences he formed his unique driving techno style. It use- was time to start DJ-jing too, so in the year 2000 he set up his first primitive turntables & mixer and started practicing with old techno you-vinyls. Some months later he already performed on small local private parties and in 2002 Reaky was booked in clubs all over Slovenia.
