Apparat is the solo alias of Sascha Ring, a veteran Berlin-based musician and one-third of Moderat alongside the duo Modeselektor. With a deep catalog of cutting-edge electronic music that spans back to the early 2000s, Apparat's music fluctuates between delicate and propulsive, yet always with a precise and intricate touch. His sixth album as Apparat, A Hum of Maybe, was just released on February 20th on Mute Records.
For his exclusive guest DJ mix for Midnight in a Perfect World, Apparat welcomes the listener into his immersive, hypnotic, and richly-textured sonic world as he weaves together blissful ambient-leaning moments with cerebral IDM beats and adventurous techno rhythms.
