About Me

Born in 1982, Masque started around the age of 8 or 9 to get into music. His first real passion was a well known band from the UK called Queen. Through his father he also came in touch with electronic music from bands like Eurythmics, Depeche Mode and Kraftwerk, which are still influences to him.
In the End of 2001, he started producing his own tracks with some low-budget music programs, where he just could arrange some pre-produced loops. Soon he recognized that this can't be all, so he searched for alternatives with more potentials and discovered Propellerheads Reason.
In 2003, he started a project with another producer from Hannover, via the Internet. Both mixed up their styles and produced a bunch of hybrid Trance and Electro songs, which became very popular on the german music community myownmusic.de. After 3 tune of the day awards, numerous downloads and reviews, they canceled the project cause of different reasons.
Back on his own, he started again to play around with different styles of music. He also started a project dedicated to his interpretation of Electro. He achieved tune of the day awards and downloads on his own now, with music he just made out of his stomache but without a certain background. Heturned his back on Trance for a while cause he couldent get satisfied with his productions, so he decided to come back, when the time had come.
It's 2007 ... new motivation, knowledge and taste. Let's see what we can expect ...
