Searching for the boundaries of electronic breaks.

Focussing on a wide selection of breakbeat oriented music, Mass Overflow tries to push the envelop with each release.

The label was started in January 2012 and was meant to be a musical outlet for the music of Motoko. But shortly after materializing his ideas for the label he soon discovered a lot of talented artists in his network. As a result the focus quickly shifted to allow these talented individuals a platform to release their creative ideas.

Now Mass Overflow is home to some of the most innovative artists in breakbeat, dubstep, drum & bass and glitch hop. Constantly trying to innovate their sounds.

Growing up,I  studied music theory and learned classical piano until I lost interest in my teen years. Fast forward decades later having not touched a musical instrument, I found nanostudio which was the catalyst that rekindled my desire to play/create music. As much as I liked nanostudio, I really wanted to play actual hardware. Today I own a few hardware synthesizers including : Roland JX-3P , KIWI Mod Roland JX-3P, Roland Juno 60, Novation Ultranova, Kurzweil K-2000VP, Korg ElecTribe EA-1 , Korg ElecTribe ER-1 and an Alesis SR-18. Recently acquired a Casio WK-1630 and a Yamaha AN1-x from my dad who has been a professional musician most of his life. I am also just starting to indulge into plug ins and now have in a very small manner used Alchemy which is an amazing plug in, Many thanks to Marko Ettlich of the Retrosound Project for patiently helping me in the beginning ; guiding me in the right direction for hardware selection. The last 8 months has been full of experimenting , learning subtractive synthesis, learning proper mixing, etc. Also a very special thanks to Micheal W for also patiently teaching me and sharing his knowledge in music production. I've had the great pleasure of meeting some of the finest musicians here on the cloud  who have been inspiring and very helpful. The most rewarding part for me has been the fellowships and friendships I've discovered. I'm always eager to help where I can. However, with a following that continues to grow, it has become impossible to stay on top of everyone's music. But I try my best. If you have any questions about anything, message me and I'll do my best to help. I've seen a trend how some people will follow looking to expand their fan base and drop people in the grease. Not cool! Please, do everyone a favor and don't follow unless you truly have interest in someone's music. Thanks for stopping by. Hope you will find something you enjoy.

First of all I'm a Musician and my favorite music is Electronic an House music. To me the best way of presenting that is the DJ.


At age 16 Dave got into Electronic and dance Music in his mom's room, lol by listening to the dance radio channels and being expired by dj's (armin van buuren, dj Tiesto Paul van dyk Stan Kolev) he decided to take matters in his own hands.Studied the sounds and how they were mix. Now that he has it marinated in his head, his is giving it his all.

Fronz Arp is a singer-songwriter and indie producer with a prodigious voice and DIY flare for the dramatic. His work has been compared to weird-pop wonders, such as David Bowie, Tom Waits, Muse and Kate Bush. The self-producing artist explores the strength of a DIY approach to music with a clear personal vision and bird-finger flipped at the traditionally well-trodden main-stream production values.  

Throughout 2012, Fronz Arp will be stretching his skills to release a radio-ready, self-produced song every 2 weeks in a project called FRONZ ARP IS A TINY CROOKED ORCHESTRA
