from
detroit/windsor area is born another groundbreaking artist unwilling to
settle for the sounds of mediocrity and cliché so common in today's
electronic music universe. kero (aka sohail azad) was brought up on the
underground sounds of detroit/windsor throughout the better part of the
90s. inspired by unusual sonic landscapes and complex sequencing techniques,
kero developed a taste for the more experimental side of electronic music
bringing the sounds of autechre, aphex twin and richard devine to the
virgin ears of many young detroiters. armed with a talent for raw digital
mayhem kero immersed himself in a constant production frenzy, developing
his unique signature sound blending complex and experimental programming
tactics with the more harsh and dark sonic sculpture of harder loop tek.
along side his audio production, kero's digital multimedia sensor activated
video installations and cutting edge print artwork have drawn attention
from many and made him one of the key multimedia designers in the detroit/windsor
underground and we do mean deep....
you can find kero's releases on german labels bpitch
control, shitkatapult,
sender records and detroit labels lowres

records, ghostly
