Lorenzo Senni is as likely to be found exhibiting at the Centre Pompidou in Paris as he is to be performing in renowned clubs like Berlin’s Berghain. Investigating sonic structures via diverse recording techniques, his works range from radical computer music to field recordings and sound art. He coined the term "Pointillistic Trance" to describe the stripped-down build ups and arpeggiations on his 2012 LP Quantum Jelly for Editions Mego while 2014’s Superimposition was another visceral subversion of the genre. He is one third of techno crew One Circle and the founder of experimental label Presto!? records, which has released Detroit's DJ Stingray and Florian Hecker among others.
