Setaoc Mass is Sam Coates , a Manchester born artist that has become one of techno's most distinctive and essential voices. His sound is sleek, hypnotic and immediately recognisable, spanning techno, IDM, electro and experimental music with precision honed over 15 years. Releases on Soma Recordings, Figure, Blueprint and his own SK_eleven label have cemented his reputation as both a prolific producer and a curator of forward-thinking music. His 2022 debut album Horror Vacui made clear that with Setaoc Mass, techno is just the tip of the iceberg. A regular on the world's most respected dance floors Berghain, Basement, Bassiani and Awakenings he brings the same focus and intention to the booth as he does to the studio.
