Mario Masullo lives and works in Rome. An active sound artist, label owner, musician and promoter, all of his outlets are governed by his urge to distil the substance of sounds and ideas, irrespective of any scenes. He defines his music as empathetic, unexpected and heterogeneous. 'Everything moves, driven by emotions'. His musical playing field covers a very broad spectrum. From minimal techno to melancholic dub and structured noise (as mass), manipulating sounds in other worldly ways, following an old tradition of dub productions. Together with other artists he starts DEFRAG and DSP Recordings, one of the most important Italian discographic labels, active in the field of electronic sound. His numerous trips performing live in Germany, Switzerland, Spain (sonar), France and China help him solidify his reputation as producer that pushes the boundaries of acceptable forms of electronic music, feeding his need to discover new music.
