Timo Maas

Nowadays Timo needs little or no Introduction. When we started working together, and I started writing biogs for him I felt like I was clutching at straws somewhat. Now I mention his name, and the flurry of aliases he has worked under (Producer and remixer of more than 85 productions in three years, lest we forget) and everyone nods in approval (although there's still the odd one that surprises me).

Timo's production style and his Djing are unique he's a man with a mission, a man sick of the "cheesy shit" that clogs up the clubs and the charts, stifling creativity:

In a world of the rent a jock playing almost identical sets fitting into this weeks popular style Timo stands out from the crowd by being simultaneously bullish enough to do his own thing while clever enough to carry it off with such aplomb that it leaves most of us aghast.

For those of you who need reminding of the effect he and his partner Martin have had on music think back to what was popular on the dance floors 2 years ago, think to what is popular now, take Timo out of the equation and what are you left with? Not much that's what!
