Max Cooper approaches music like mathematics. His background and PhD in science is likely part of this unique approach, with Cooper’s interests lying in the science of sequencing sound.

Classically trained, he’s been using his diverse and extensive musical background since the early 2000’s to craft music rooted in sonic emotion as much as the dancefloor. Favouring intricacy in harmonies and textures, Vassiloudis’s work has always had some

Last year, French electrohouse maestro Vitalic promised to crash land back onto the scene with music that clashed “electro-mutant disco” with techno. Prophesied as a return to form toward his electro-funk roots, Dissidænce Episode 1 mostly delivered on its promise in its first half. The rest lapsed back into familiar
