Kessell is the artistic alter ego of Valentín Corujo, a key contributor and member of Polegroup and one-half of the renowned techno duo Exium. As a solo artist, Kessell delves into the most fluid dimensions of his sonic palette, seamlessly evolving from a hard and minimalist sound to his current distinctive style. His musical journey intricately weaves elements of dub, Detroit techno, minimal, and classic techno, culminating in a unique fusion that defines his artistic expression.
At the heart of his sonic exploration is Granulart Recordings, a label meticulously curated to delve into the deepest realms of techno. Focused on delivering a seamless blend of dub, classic Detroit sound, and 90s techno influences, Granulart Recordings not only serves as a platform for Kessell’s own productions but also as a canvas for like-minded artists who resonate with the label’s distinctive philosophy. At the core of the label lies a commitment to precision and musicality, with a deliberate intent to craft timeless pieces that stray away from contemporary trends.
