Since 2012, Cass. has released albums of varying styles, from the rather organic and loopbased ambientpieces on Loops & Farewell Sketches and the Red Atlantic EP on Throne of Blood in 2017, influenced by 80’s pop sonics, to the more balearic and percussive recordings on The Sound Of Glades together with Wolf Müller in 2016. 

On his 2019 solo album Postclub Prism on Into The Light Records, Cass. explores his affinity to calm and atmospheric ambient music at the treshold to the sound of club music that - an important note in this context - did always play an immense role in the personal and artistic development of Cass..

In late 2019 Cass. collaborated with long time friend Marvin Horsch aka Gianni Brezzo on the LP 'Masala Kiss', released by the lovely Basso of Growing Bin Records. For Patrick Ryder (Piccadilly Records) 'Masala Kiss' sounds like "emotional ambient, soft focus synthesis and pastoral programming and connects the ideas from early and contemporary works to a hopeless romantic record".

In 2021 Cass. announces another solo album called 'Ambient Music For A Young Girl', to be released on Growing Bin Records in 2021.
In addition to that, Cass.' and his long time partner Niklas Wandt are about to release their recording 'Esculturas Rupestres' on the Salon Des Amateurs affiliated label candomblé in the same year. The record delivers an enchanting collage of spoken word, ancient drumming, synth ambi(val)ence and free improvisation.

Technology and imperfection. The raw and the processed. Curator and curated. Solo explorer and gregarious collaborator. The life and work of Taylor Deupree are less a study in contradictions than a portrait of the multidisciplinary artist in a still-young century.

Deupree is an accomplished sound artist whose recordings, rich with abstract atmospherics, have appeared on numerous record labels, and well as in site-specific installations at such institutions as the ICC (Tokyo, Japan) and the Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media (Yamaguchi, Japan). He started out, in the 1990s, making new noises that edged outward toward the fringes of techno, and in time he found his own path to follow. His music today emphasizes a hybrid of natural sounds and technological mediation. It’s marked by a deep attention to stillness, to an almost desperate near-silence. His passion for the studio as a recording instrument is paramount in his work, but there is no hint of digital idolatry. If anything, his music shows a marked attention to the aesthetics of error, to the short circuits not only in technological systems but in human perception.

And though there is an aura of insularity to Depuree’s work, he is a prolific collaborator, having worked with the likes of Stephan Mathieu, Christopher Willits, Kenneth Kirschner, Eisi, Frank Bretschneider, Richard Chartier, Savvas Ysatis, and Tetsu Inoue.

Deupree dedicates as much time to other people’s music as he does to his own. In 1997 he founded the record label 12k, which since then has released over 80 recordings by some of the most accomplished musicians and sound artists of our time, among them Alva Noto, Steve Roden, Ryuichi Sakamoto, and Steven Vitiello. Many share with Deupree an interest in stark minimalism, but the label has also found room for, located a common ground with, the acoustic avant-garage, the instrumental derivations of post-rock, and the synthetic extremes of techno.

And collectively, the cover jackets to the 12k album releases have served as an ongoing exhibit of Deupree’s photography, its lofi aesthetic, with an emphasis on damage and wear and antiquated tech, closely paralleling his music. (His photos have also graced numerous books, design anthologies, and other recordings and projects.)

Deupree continues to evolve his sound with an ambition and drive that is masked by his music’s inherent quietude. He approaches each project with an expectation of new directions, new processes, and new junctures.
