A central figure in the Berlin electronic music scene which coalesced around the Tresor club and label, Moritz von Oswald helped initiate and develop the famous Berlin-Detroit-Chicago axis, collaborating with path-breaking artists across the Atlantic such as Juan Atkins, Eddie ‘Flashin’ Fowlkes, Jeff Mills and many others. As half of both Maurizio, and Basic Channel/Rhythm & Sound, he transformed this new sound in respectively minimal and dub-inflected directions, originating traditions in electronic music that continue to this day.

Over the last decade, von Oswald has branched out into more experimental and improvisational contexts: a landmark release for Deutsche Grammophon in which he was commissioned alongside Carl Craig to recompose music from Ravel, and Mussorgsky; a critically acclaimed collaboration with Norwegian jazz trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer and continued recorded and live work as The Moritz von Oswald Trio with Laurel Halo and Heinrich Köberling; previous iterations included collaboration with Max Loderbauer, Vladislav Delay and legendary Afro-beeat pioneer, Tony Allen.
