Bio
Denis Ago brings a DJ's feel for rhythm and an instinct for a memorable hook to tech house. Based in Milan, he developed his interest in electronic music through DJing before beginning to release his own productions in 2016. His music has since found homes at Mother Recordings and Mindshake, alongside the edits and sample packs he shares through his own Bandcamp.
In the studio, Ago leaves room for an idea to arrive in different forms. A track might begin with drums and bass, an imagined synth melody or a vocal that needs the right setting. He described the latter process in a Music Is 4 Lovers interview, recalling how one stubborn vocal sample eventually became the starting point for a Mother Recordings production. It is a hands-on approach to house: find the element that catches the ear, then build a groove around it.
