Mr. Mau (real name: Dries Bultynck) is one of those guys that have been around for years in the better parts of the techno scene, but has always stayed under the radar of the bigger nights. A reason is perhaps that he has always stayed true to his sound and steered away from adapting himself too much to the hype of the moment. He has release on labels like Labyrinth, Kobalt and Klips, and is scheduled to found his own imprint in 2009.

Mr. Mau (real name: Dries Bultynck) is one of those guys that have been around for years in the better parts of the techno scene, but has always stayed under the radar of the bigger nights. A reason is perhaps that he has always stayed true to his sound and steered away from adapting himself too much to the hype of the moment. He has release on labels like Labyrinth, Kobalt and Klips, and is scheduled to found his own imprint in 2009.

After a lot of demos and many versions, he presents his first release on Forteana Records. The label had been mothballed for six months, but they took the label a step further: darker, heavier, more techno, more experimental than mothership Coincidence Records.

Tracks:
01. Exploration
02. Model 505
03. Untitled

Laurent Garnier (F Comm)
“Loooove “Model 505” will play this techno monster everywhere!”

“Great progress in Mr Mau’s work”

Tom Hades (MB Elektronics, Girafe Sauvage)
“Very nice production from Mr. Mau ! I will definitely play Model 505, perfect arrangement !”

Jeroen Search (Outland, ION, Len Series)
“yeah, I like the “exploration” track!”
