Timo Maas is mainly known for his involvement in Germany's trance scene as a DJ and producer. His first record, "The Final XS," was issued in 1995, and shortly thereafter he teamed with producer Gary D on the successful "Die Herdplatte" record. During 1996-1997, he released several singles and issued a full-length under his Orinoko moniker. Following the success of his Azzido Da Bass remix "Dooms Night" and his own track "Ubik," Maas released 2000's Music for the Maases, a mix album largely comprised of his own productions and remixes. After one more mix album, Connected, his production debut, Loud, appeared in early 2002. ~ Diana Potts
