Three years in the making, 'Smoke and Mirrors' showcases bigger and bolder sounds that have been building from the tenek studio.

Each track having a common theme throughout, "Things are not what they seem..." - tenek.

This album was designed to offer a variety for both listening audiences, as well as for global sync licensing opportunities.

Taking things to a new level, the band enlisted the talents of additional musicians such as: Paul Jackson (bass player from 80's British pop band T'Pau), Australian-based Sam Morrison (bass), Michael Steer (bass) and newly added band member Steve Clark (drums/vocals).

Since tenek's second album ('On The Wire' - 2010) the 2 recently released EPs ('Another Day' and 'What Kind of Friend?') were successful tests of the the new direction the band has been taking their music.

Since the Devon/Essex tenek debuted in 2007, the electronica duo have toured two well-received albums and 9 singles/EP's.

tenek are all about hard grinding electro grooves, a power house of classic British synthesizer pop and stabs of driving guitar and percussion to bring in a slice of rock edge.

Producing a unique crossover which is credible and satisfying to both the cult electro scene while retaining a mass market appeal through the their melodies and hooks.
