Electronic Badminton King aka E.B. King is a member of Scienceofuse, an electronic music collective from Ljubljana. Best known for the Gumitwist event series, the collective have hosted some of the finest artists in electronic music, such as Alexander Robotnick, A Guy Called Gerald, Legowelt, Modeselektor, Morphosis, Octave One and many, many more. With a love for lush Detroit strings and quirky electro beats, E.B.King started playing at the legendary Astrodisco nights in 2006 after handing out a demo to DJ Dojaja at a record store in Ljubljana. As part of the Scienceofuse collective he became a resident of their Gumitwist events, where he also played his first live gigs with Tha Disko Don. He DJed at various venues in the region, playing at the famous Exit festival in Novi Sad among others. In 2012, he formed the live acid-techno outfit Niplodok together with his cousin Dulash der DJ and DJ Dojaja. They have since performed live in selected venues in Slovenia and abroad, including the Flow Festival Ljubljana 2015. His first release was the electro track "Mutilator" on the"K4 Format" compilation, released by Klub K4 in 2007. The funky discoid track "Tuesday Night Fever" from the second installment of the same compilation was well recieved and briefly charted in Juno's Top 10 Disco Download chart in the summer of 2009. One of his tracks ("Fukkitt") also appeared on on the 2015 "Stiropor vol.2" compilation. In 2016, Scienceofuse launched a label, kicking it off with EB's first independent release (COMING SOON).
