Brooklyn Bounce biographyThis techno project was created by the two producers, remixers and DJs Matthias Menck and Dennis 'Double M' Bohn (aka DJ Bonebreaker) from Hamburg. Matthias is a qualified audio engineer, operating in his own studio. Dennis is resident DJ at the Kontor, one of the Hamburg's hottest house clubs. It was during a DJ job in the Traxx club in Hamburg that Matthias met Dennis, who was working there as a light jockey. Following their first meeting in August of 1995, Dennis and Matthias started 'Mental Madness Productions' and scored a chart hit with their first co-production, Singin' In My Mind, by Boyz R Us. Further productions followed, the latest including Mola Adebisi's Shake That Body. The duo have recently done a number of remixes for Solid, Daisy Dee, Kool And The Gang, Bluntfunkers, Scooter, George Krantz and many others. Matthias is also mixing the tracks for one of the top compilations in the world of house, Progressive Attack, on which Dennis and Matthias will be releasing some of their own tracks as well under the names Toxilogic, Harmonic Beats, Mental Madness and Dolphin Sound. For the Progressive Attack 4 recording, the idea of producing a lead track was taken up, culminating in Brooklyn Bounce The Theme (Of Progressive Attack). DJs and purchasers of the compilation were so thrilled by this track that it was decided to release it separately as a single. Within no time, Brooklyn Bounce The Theme (Of Progressive Attack) rose to #6 on the German Dance Charts, #8 in the German singles charts, #37 in France, #40 in Switzerland (where it stayed 12 weeks) and became a club favourite which was followed by an incredible sales chart success The second single Get Ready To Bounce debuted at #6 at the beginning of May 1997. It went #95 in the USA, #20 in Sweden, #20 in Finland, #21 in Switzerland, and #16 in Denmark. By now, Brooklyn Bounce had started their conquest of the world with chart successes in France, Scandinavia and many other places. The follow-up was called Take A Ride, hitting the charts on the 11th August 1997, reaching #28 in Germany, #27 in Denmark and #12 in Sweden. The first album The Beginning also became a big success. The singles had been backed up by high-budget videos featuring the animated front figure "Abuna E." thereby closing the loop to the Progressive Attack compilation series. During gigs, Brooklyn Bounce is incarnated by Damon, the "Demon" (aka Rene in the US version of the album Restart), who can also be seen in the video, and by the dancers Ulrica and Maeva, two go-go girls from Hamburg's Traxx club. Later in 1997 a single called The Real Bass was released. It entered the charts on the 10th october 1997, peaking to #23 in Germany and #44 in Sweden. On the 27th of November came the second album called The Second Attack. Then Brooklyn Bounce produced a single called The Music's Got Me, in fall of 1998, a cover of the Bass Bumpers song. It entered the charts on the 23rd February 1998, reaching #39 in Germany, #30 in Austria, #67 in the UK, #21 in Denmark, #58 in Sweden. Then followed the song Contact. It appeared in the charts on the 7th September 1998, peaking ot #44 in Germany and #15 in Denmark.
