Screwball

of Dance and Electronic
A.k.a. Marek Szpak

Dj Screwball from early age was fascinated by various range of sounds, therefore his disappointed parents, who wanted him to become either lawyer or a doctor of medicine, had to send him to music school. Fortunately Mr Screwball turned out to be happygo-lucky kid and his music carrier has begun at this point. Screwball started to create his own sounds on personal computer. In 1995 Screwball and his block mate Pealoo developed project called Riot Kru situated around oldschool and hardcore vibes. RK presented its first gig in legendary club ‘Paradise’ in Bydgoszcz city. After this incredible and successful debut, crew started to make garage music in their own spot placed in Screwball’s basement. That’s the origin of the ‘Basement Kru’. Later the crew was organising gigs in ‘Trip’ club in Bydgoszcz city and appeared in tv music programme. Paeloo was soon replaced by Bandicoot. New squad was entertaining crowds with hard drum’n’bass. After years of music journey, producing many diffrent kind of sounds (from hiphop, breakbeat, hardcore, to dnb and others) he released an album for polish label Hak Records (www.hak-rec.com), and two speed garage ep’s for Hak, and for BigBad from Birmingham (www.bigbadrecords.co.uk). Dj Screwball constantly promotes his own and unique beats but generally doesn’t avoid mixing with tracks from famous of less known producers. Screwball has been playing and entertaining crowds in numerous cities and towns, mainly around Poland, but also in England and Spain.
