Rainer Trüby

Rainer Trüby was born in Stuttgart in 1971. His first DJ experience was in 1990 where he was the host of Tuesday afternoon teadance, developing a feeling how to rock an elderly but open-minded crowd with classics like Es gibt kein Bier auf Hawaii.

Later, Ali & Basti Tiefschwarz gave Rainer a Sunday night residency at their ON-U club in Stuttgart where the motto was "all things nice" ranging from soul funk jazz to hip-hop and Talkin' Loud stuff.

In 1993 Rainer met Compost head honcho Michael Reinboth. After some 12"s with A Forest Mighty Black and some compilations (Glücklich) he teamed up with Christian Prommer and Roland Appel to form the Trüby Trio.

Some 12"s, one album Elevator Music, one remix album Retreated, a DJ Kicks compilation for K7 records and numerous remixes followed for artists such as Frédéric Galliano, Thievery Corporation, Nitin Sawhney, Bebel Gilberto, Turntablerocker, US3, Kim Sanders, Wagon Cookin' and Klaus Doldinger amongst others.
