Masi Oka

Masi Oka, from his real name Jérôme Blanche, was born in 1982 in Paris area. From his youth, he has been immersed in a very particular musical world. In the mid 90's, he used to listen to artists such as Carl Cox or Laurent Garnier. Although giving interest to lots of diffrent types of music, he is of course much more attracted to techno sounds. At his arrival in Marseille in the beggining of the 2000's, he felt in love with a new-born electronic movement based on german vibes.



Regular dancer of famous underground clubs in south of France (Spartacus Club and Barlive), he enriched his musical culture and developed specific sensitivities.



He then starts producing tracks at home, with a german-minimal touch. Back in 2005, he met Mikael (aka IMmek), his future acolyte and friend, who teach him the art of spinning.

They played together in many clubs from Marseille and acquired a residence at the "WetmixonthePool" parties of La Piscine.
