Audio post production engineer, lecturer in music computing and sound synthesis. Shaped by the Berlin glitch movement of the '90s and the raw energy of the early 2000s European rave scene, his musical voice now fuses precision engineering with deep club experimentation. His productions carve out hypnotic soundscapes—equal parts immersive and unpredictable—balancing broken rhythms, fragmented textures, and unconventional tempos. It’s a journey through the fringes of contemporary electronic music, where structure bends and the unexpected becomes the groove.

A mix series where electronic music artists are invited to record a journey through their own productions.

Curated by @hypnus under the moon since 2014.
