Teenage Techno Punks are a young techno DJ duet from Belgrade, formed by Marko Nastic and Dejan Milicevic. Both of them are interested in DJing since the begining of year 1995, when they started to collect their first vinyls. Marko spent most of his time in that period practising in famous DJ Lale's Happy People shop, where numerous Belgrade enthusiasts used to gather. His first gigs were on Happy People parties, spinning records in club Omen and Magna House club. First gig in most famous techno club in Belgrade - Industria was in march 1997. on Lords Of Acid party together with Gordan Paunovic, Banyan and Mr. P. He still plays on Happy People parties, despite the fact that most of his gigs are under TTP.

Dejan Milicevic had his first sets also in Omen and Magna House. First bigger gig he had together with Boza Podunavac on DTT:NYC:CHI party (january 1997), and soon after that he was a resident DJ on these parties in club Industria. Their friendship brought them to start working on parties together, in december 1996 (Magna House club). Soon they are booked for numerous parties in Belgrade and across Serbia and Macedonia (Skopje, Nis, Krusevac, Novi Sad, Kraljevo, Kragujevac, Kula, Indjija, Banja Luka, Negotin...). Christening was on april 5th 1997 on Kozmik Attack party where they worked together with Eric Powell, Boza Podunavac and Vlada Janjic. Since then they are known as Teenage Techno Punks (thanks to Gordan Paunovic)! Within a month they are on the second place regarding votes of club Industria visitors (after Boza Podunavac). Vertiginous success was followed by a everytime better attendance on their parties and also few DJ sets on Belgrade radio stations (B92, YuRadio, Studio B, Radio Roda). At the end of 1997 on traditional Radio B92 Ritam Herca annual award, TTP duet takes award for the best YU DJ. Besides Industria and Omen they also perform at club Underground and ofcourse Barutana. At the YU Fashion Week (Prokovic sisters designs) they were musical support. Fact that they had more than 110 bookings in 1997 is for sure impressive!! As we speak of bigger parties, they worked with Charlie Hall, Eric Powell, Daz Sound, Misjah, Mark E.G, Fred Giteau... These days (october 98) they are ready for opening of clb Industria. They are residents at Omen club (tuesday) and club Underground (thursday). On october 17th in cooperation with Gordan Paunovic and Rex Cinema was held a party that will be the first in a raw of parties that will follow. On these parties - matines (17:00-22:00) besides high quality minimal techno sound, people can watch bizzare videos such as manga porno, trash films, and also domestic and some foreign skate and in-line skate films, whose participiants are also regular visitors on these parties.

As previous party, forthcoming will also include 3 turntables, and news will be MC, drums and bass guitar! TTP plan to gather great number of young people and to protect their work and interests, as they will enable them to show their creativity to other people on their parties. Till the end of november 1998 they plan to release mixed tape and CD, which will be accessible via YuTechno website.
