Educated by dub and drum and bass, his approach to producing is heavely relies on hands-on techniques. His dedication and love for music and gear make it so that he spends most of his time in the studio, exploring new sounds and techniques while crafting beats on the y. 2017 looks bright for Opuswerk, with upcoming releases on high pro le labels, such as ARTS, Dement3d (solo and as HISS:1292) and Semantica.
