Massel comes from Cologne, a citiy with a long tradition of electronic music, which is reflected in his work especially in its creative use of sounds of analog synthesizers, which are then woven into contemporary resonance of electronic music, supplied in the traditions of techno music, minimalism, glitch, dub and dubstep and movie soundtracks. His latest disc ‘Capsize Recovery’, which is already earning rave reviews, leads us into a dark sounding universe with slowed down bass and drums over which hovers a grim atmosphere, wrapped in the dance pulse.
