Born in Mpumalanga, Euphonik's love for music was deeply influenced by his father’s collection of legendary artists like The Spinners, Marvin Gaye, Stimela, and Hugh Masekela. This early exposure sparked a lifelong passion he nurtured by DJing at friends' birthday parties in his teens. His talent and dedication saw him progress from playing local events in Benoni to securing a residency at Midrand’s Who Zoo nightclub, where he honed his mixing and production skills.
In 2003, Euphonik began remixing tracks, gaining prominence the following year when he teamed up with DJ Kent to release the collaborative album Kentphonik. His growing reputation led to opportunities at YFM, where he provided mixes, and eventually his own show at the national radio station 5FM.
