Biography

Mayer was born and raised in the Black Forest, Germany. At the age of 20, Mayer moved to Cologne. With the help of Wolfgang and Reinhardt Voigt he established Kompakt.

In 2003, he released a pair of mixes. The first was based on the first several releases in Kompakt's "Speicher" series, while the second was commissioned by London's Fabric series.
