Timo Maas is a storyteller. For him, it's never about back-to-back bangers or brainless hits, butabout crafting, building, teasing and eventuallypleasing. From hefty concrete funk to stripped-back and brain-altering techno via psychedelic synths stronger than any drug, he knows exactlywhat to play and when. He has done so at every major club and festival on the planet fromTomorrowland to Kazantip, Creamfields to Coachella, while for 17 years during the golden yearsof Ibiza's Circoloco party at DC10 he was a regular guest, which is a testament to the fact thathe has always stayed ahead of the times.

 

Two-time Grammy Award-nominated Timo has made every shade of electronic music fromfamous remixes of Azzido Da Bass and Depeche Mode, leftfield reworks of Afro-Peruvian groupNovalima and Indonesian all-female heavy metal band Voice of Baceprot via work with popgreats like Paul McCartney, Madonna and Placebo. But his pure love of techno keeps himcoming back to his most famous sound. It's all united by his ability to craft weighty bass androlling drums that lock you in.

 

To dream up unusual breakdowns, freaky vocal treatments anddeftly designed details that sound like nothing else. He has released on majors like Warner andVirgin and underground staples like Stripped Down Records, Cocoon, Mobilee, Tenampa andLast Night On Earth. But whatever he does and wherever he does it, Timo is alwaysinvestigating new musical grounds.
