About Isabella Bassi

Hi! I am an Italo-Brazilian music composer, sound designer, DJ and tutor based in Berlin, with an enthusiasm for music education and music therapy. Within the last six years I have mainly worked on my project Isabassi, curated guest mix podcasts & radio shows, taught electronic music production courses, organized events and played in Europe and Brazil. I am now running private electronic music production lessons and creative mentoring sessions at my studio in Berlin and online. As a tutor and mentor, I take an experience-oriented approach to the one-to-one sessions, introducing and encouraging experimentation and different workflow processes, while developing skills and uncovering resources.

Isabella's Experience

I focus on half-time and leftfield bass through sound collage with techniques of re-sampling & field recording, drum programming and granular synthesis. Allowing different arrays of gear to shape the sonic world of each creative period, my debut album ‘Utterly Prone To’ on Fox & Hound Recordings, out in 2019, featured 8 tracks filled up with distortion, noise and suggestive beats. Since then, I have released music on several VA compilations on labels Ohm Resistance, System Revival, ygam, Minor Adjustment, Syncretism and suspension. The second album ‘789’, released on Kinship in 2021, presented a more defined and bolder sound design, deeper low frequencies and prepared guitar experimentation, on cassette and in digital format.
