DJs Martin Dingle and James Munns formed The Karminsky Experience Inc. in January of 1991. After a series of successful and influential club nights in and around London, The Karminsky Experience Inc. released three compilations for Polygram. "Inflight Entertainment", "Espresso Espresso" and "Further Inflight Entertainment" were released to critical acclaim between 1996 and 1997 and had combined global sales of nearly 100,000 copies.
After the release of their first compilations for Polygram, The Karminsky Experience Inc. spent the next few years traveling extensively - DJing for the likes of Hugh Hefner, Russ Meyer, Ken Kesey and Burt Bacharach at a wide range of events including film festivals in Copenhagen, Vienna and London and for a number of high profile companies including Diesel, Levis, Viva TV and Channel 4.
In 1997 The Karminsky Experience Inc. launched their own record label and released their first 12" EP. "Exploration" was the NME single of the week upon its release. This poly-rhythmic, outer-space, sitar-funk workout also featured on Thievery Corporation's 1998 DJ Kicks installment and has been a mainstay in their DJ set ever since. Karminsky's second 12" EP, "The Hip Sheik" was equally successful, featuring in the award winning Italian film "L'utima Baccio". The Karminsky Experience Inc. have since remixed a number of artists including Tim Love Lee, The Gentle People, Nicola Conte, Piero Umiliani and Ursula 1000.
