tenek is the latest project from Geoff Pinckney (The Nine/Mesh) and Pete Steer. The sound features shades of classic electronica fused with a contemporary twist.
tenek released their eponymous debut ep cd in September 2007 which was a limited edition of 200 and has now sold out although it is available as a download via the Toffeetones shop. The debut album 'Stateless' which was released through the Toffeetones label on the 20th March 2009 has received excellent reviews. The first single from the album 'Where's The Time?' was released on Monday 20th October 2008 achieving a number 2 position in the Dutch Underground Charts. The second single 'Submission' was released on the 23rd February 2009. It has been extremely well received so far both in the UK and Europe, taking the band to a wider audience and reaching number 1 in the DUC. tenek have played numerous gigs this year and supported Sheffield synth legends The Human League before appearing at the Pluswelt Festival in Germany to make a memorable European debut. The band have also recently appeared at the Summer Darkness Festival in Holland alongside Front 242 and are currently working on a remix ep promo for DJ's. Already being cited as one of this years most vibrant and infectious electronic acts, tenek are going from strength to strength and will be coming to a town near you soon!
Thankyou so much for a great night last night, really enjoyed it, love the remix ep and yes it would be great to do it again, take care and hope the rest of the gigs go well. Andy, Chris and Tim x

We want promo! We want promo! I'm not chanting for some band playing support to Tenek, one called "Promo" (sounds suspiciously like another unimaginative Indie band name like "Bonk" or "Plep") ...we just want promo!
