Deep Space Network Biography

deep-space-network

David Moufang, along with figures such as Pete Namlook, Victor Sol, and Uwe Schmidt, is one of the more active members of the German experimental techno scene. His Source label has released single- and LP-length works from Vulva, Deep Space Network, Yoni, View to View, Move D, Reagenz, Spacetime Continuum, and Multiple Void Enjoyment. His own role in some of those projects (View to View, Reagenz, and his main ongoing collaboration with Jonas Grossman, Deep Space Network) has given him a high profile in the global experimental electronic music scene, resulting in his works being reissued by a number of labels, including Instinct and Reflective in the U.S. Although the original releases of many of his recordings can be hard to track down, many of Moufang's and other Source artist's material have been collected on various-artist compilations, including the Homeworks and Headshop CDs, both released by Source. Moufang's longest ongoing collaborative association has been with fellow Heidelberg resident Jonas Grossman. Together the pair have released albums as Earth to Infinity and Deep Space Network, as well as in combination with Dutch DJ/musician Dr. Atmo as I.F. on Namlook's Fax label. In 1994, Moufang released a solo CD through Fax, Solitaire, and the following year Namlook established the KM20 label as a Fax subsidiary dedicated to DSN and related projects. Traffic, the label's first release, was recorded live at the German Love Parade, an annual event somewhat known for spawning loads of live and DJ-set releases (usually of mediocre quality). Deep Space Network Meets Higher Intelligence Agency followed in 1997. That same year, Moufang recorded his first album as the head of an atmospheric jazz group named Conjoint.
