After an earthquake devastated his hometown in central Italy, Øbsidian found solace in techno. Stopping first in Berlin, he then made his way to San Francisco, where he began building his record collection and developing the craft of his vinyl mixing in earnest.

Currently cutting his teeth in the Bay Area scene, his take tends towards the dark, percussive, and penetrating end of the techno spectrum.

He|Him

Marvin Hoyer aka Vanta based in Leipzig, is an artist who navigates the space between raw intensity and hypnotic sound design. Originally rooted in metalcore and hardcore, he has always been drawn to the realms of electronic and experimental music. Exploring the unknown through impulsive rhythms, dissociative sounds, and dark, immersive atmospheres, his goal is to captivate listeners with his productions, DJ sets, and live performances.

Since 2019, Vanta has been shaping his distinct sound within both the local and international scene, releasing on labels such as Charybdis, Further Sessions, KVLTÖ Records, and Deflection Music, among others. His productions reflect a deep fascination with raw energy, hypnotic structures, and sonic contrasts—merging intensity with precision.

In late 2024, he became an official member of Munich-based IO Records, finding not only a creative home but also a like-minded community. In 2025, he joined Leipzig's aequalis crew, known for its influential event series that once defined the sound of the late Institut für Zukunft and now continues to evolve beyond its former home.

With a vision that bridges genres and defies conventions, Vanta remains committed to pushing sonic boundaries-always seeking the next unexplored space in sound.
