Based in the rural border area between Germany and the Netherlands the two members of producer duo KNIPPMÄSS grew up with Y2K Dutchcore, Gabber and Memphis Rap. After years of experimenting with randomly thrifted cassettes and Fruity Loops, German Indie label Babygroove compiled the first Knippmäss tape from various folders on their hard drives in 2025. The sound of KNIPPMÄSS is best described as their own blend between a Trance and Happy Hardcore inspired sense for Ambience, blended with patterns between Wave Phonk, Witchhouse and Dungeon Synth.
