440 Hz is a producer and relentless digger based in Nantes. With a background in sound engineering, he explores the fringes of bass music through hybrid textures and sharp sound design, with a strong focus on detail and impact. His new EP, Transient, reflects this approach — a project that’s both introspective and physical, shaped by influences from the Australian and UK scenes (Iota, Ok EG, Sam Brickell…).
Blending ambient and bass, Transient brings together airy melodies and dense low-end, driven by tight, organic rhythms. A sense of nostalgia runs throughout, echoing childhood memories and raw sonic tension. Two remixes by Neida and Portway extend this dynamic with their own distinct textures.
Spotted on labels like Krakzh (Théo Muller) and Jerry Horny, 440 Hz has performed on stages such as Astropolis and UBU. His live sets showcase a precise and ever-evolving musical vision.
