Italian hard techno DJ and producer MAIKE DEPAS (Michelangelo De Pasquale) is rapidly
becoming one of the most exciting talents in electronic music. Drawing from a decade of
experience and a sound that merges 90s rave, hard techno, and psy-trance, Depas has
redefined his artistic vision in 2024, earning recognition from DJ Mag Italia, Mixmag
Germany, and FAZE as a rising star in the global scene.
A classically trained musician who studied composition and piano at the Milan Conservatory,
Depas blends technical precision with raw, boundary-pushing energy. His recent audio-visual
relaunch has brought his dystopian aesthetic to life, highlighted by a live set at Berlin’s
Teufelsberg, shooting with cyberpunk designer Demobaza, and collaborating with the likes
of Amstra, Mattia Trani, and Matasism. In the past year, Depas has released a series of EPs
under Mattia Trani’s Pushmaster Discs, including ‘Tokyo Nights’ and the most recent ‘Circle
of Life’ , which dropped Oct. 11. These innovations culminate in his forthcoming EP ‘Sexy
Devil Horse’ , releasing Dec. 12 on his own label, The Innovation Studio Records.
The 10-track collection showcases collaborations with iconic artists like Luca Agnelli, OGUZ,
and Michael Katana, as well as rising stars CHRS and Gianni Di Bernardo. With the
momentum of 2024 under his wings, ‘Sexy Devil Horse’ marks a defining moment in Depas’
career and solidifies his place among the new generation of hard techno visionaries.
