Timonk & Pumbass is a breakbeat project identified by two aliases, Timonk and Pumbass. It is not a new name. Verifiable releases go back to December 2013. Historical credits also list the two aliases separately inside the same production. The civil names of the people involved, and the exact membership of the project over time, have not been confirmed. Qobuz credits Rafael Jesús Cumplido Girado as the composer of “Simba” and “Musca” (2026). That credit does not by itself show that this is the civil name of Timonk or of Pumbass, or that he is the only member.

No home town is on record. The project has documented ties to the Spanish breakbeat circuit and has been announced at events in Andalusia. That is not the same as an accredited place of origin. Activity is documented from 2013 through 2026. A continuous run across every year in between is not established. The roles on record are production and remixing, plus announced appearances at electronic events. A specific job for each alias is not documented.

The music sits in club breakbeat: prominent bass and broken, danceable rhythms. NoisyBreaks’ own 2014 text for “Hidden Lang” pointed to heavy bass and festive vocals. That description belongs to that release. It is not a profile of the whole catalogue.

The first located release is “Bug Wings”, on Elektroshok Records in December 2013, with “Sleek Show” remixed by Shade K. In October 2014 NoisyBreaks issued “Hidden Lang / Boh!” (NB018), credited with Shade K, and the label’s own promo presented it as their debut on NoisyBreaks. In September 2015 Elektroshok released “Once Again”, which also received a remix by Aggresivnes and Shade K.

Other early credits are a remix, not an original. Timonk & Pumbass remixed Blacklist’s “Take The Ride” on “Revolution Remix 5” (Stars & Knights Records). They are also credited on Adrenalinez’s “Plight” (Buragum Records). Shade K belongs to that first period: he took part in “Bug Wings” and “Hidden Lang”, remixed “Sleek Show”, and appears with Aggresivnes on the “Once Again” remix. Nokaut is a later collaborator, credited on “Flare” (Elektroshok Records, July 2026).

A new run of releases is documented from 2025. “We Are Back” came out on Frequency Fusion Records on 11 July 2025, according to Qobuz. In 2026 the project issued “Freak Feels” (Dirty Kitchen Rave, May), “Tehtoka” (Raveart Records, July), “Low Freq” (Funktasty Crew Records, July), “Flare” with Nokaut (Elektroshok Records, July), “Laila” (SPACE PIZZA Records, August), “Skar” (SPACE PIZZA Records, September), “Firework” (Break Beat Connection, September), “Simba” (Frequency Fusion Records, October), “Shenzi” (DELAFRÄ Records, October) and “Musca” (Raveart Records, 27 October 2026). “Really Love Me” is scheduled for 1 December 2026 on Distorsion Records. As of October 2026 it is not a released record.

That later run places the same project on several specialist labels at once and widens a catalogue that had already started in 2013.
