Gesaffelstein, a Sound of Darkness


Mike Lévy better known as Gesaffelstein, born 1985 in Lyon, France is a French techno artist and DJ. He produced two tracks on Yeezus, the sixth album of American rapper Kanye West, including the lead single "Black Skinhead" and "Send It Up", both tracks produced with West, Daft Punk, Brodinski and Mike Dean. He has worked alongside and remixed tracks for such artists as varied as Tiga, ASAP Rocky, Miss Kittin and Lana Del Rey.


A quick glimpse at Gesaffelstein’s professional mythology is all it takes to understand the heart of his appeal to West: a shared interest in art and fashion a personal aesthetic possessed of palpable intensity and ripe with darkness and violence and an eye towards intellectual concerns broader than music. Gesaffelstein debut album Aleph fuses those pre-existing aspirations to ideas about style that feel directly derived from his work with West with its cover a jewel case containing a gold disc, the case overlaid with complex patterns reminiscent of circuitry serving as the most obvious hat tip.
