bio KLIKTRAK (aka Richard Smith) has been a pioneering force in the creation, performance and promotion of original electronic music in
South Africa, since 1989. Progressing from various projects with brother KONTROLMAN (aka Matthew Smith) , including PARSON`S PROGRESS
(1989-1991), the RYTHMN METHODISTS (1990-1994), and RED FRIDAY - the critically acclaimed LIVE act (1991-1996), KLIKTRAK has now
established himself at the forefront of original electronic music production in South Africa, with his innovative solo endeavour.
KLIKTRAK was formed in response to the growing pressure exerted by the mass commercial rave scene developing in South Africa around
1995/6, together with the onset of creative differences between the more ecclectic/experimental leanings of KONTROLMAN and RED FRIDAY,
and the more minimalist groove oriented expressions KLIKTRAK had always tended towards. Coupled with the fact that KONTROLMAN was
about to embark on adventures directed towards deeper Africa, KLIKTRAK set about building upon the LIVE performance success he had
enjoyed as front man of RED FRIDAY, as well as consolidating a collected range of electronic instrumentation into a productive professional
home-studio.
The aim was to establish KLIKTRAK as an artist of quality, innovative electronic music, as well as a professional performance act, playing
LIVE at electronic-future culture, and dance-music events, both in South Africa, and eventually internationally.
2007 sees Kliktrak celbrate 15 years of Live electronic and dance music performance !
KLIKTRAK remains committed to delivering professional performances of LIVE electronic music, as well as exploring his own interpretations
of electronic future culture, and his subsequent expressions through electronic technology as a medium for music, in the form of aural art.membersKliktrak aka Richard Smith |
