M4SONIC has been blowing up the blogosphere with his unique YouTube videos that show just his hands playing tracks live on a pair of Novation Launchpads. The “Daft Punk of Youtube” hasn’t revealed his face until now; and its safe to say the identity hidden approach has paid off for this guy who seems like a good ol’ everday Aussie.

With a background in classical piano ‘the man behind the hands’ has diversified his approach to music, replacing piano keys for the two MIDI controllers. His right hand controls most of the melodic sounds whilst the left is responsible for keeping in time, with a custom drum kit and various FX and vocal loops.

When he released his first video released in 2013 it had over 1,000,000 views within three weeks. Since then his subsequent clips have received similar acclaim, proving that the bedroom producer is still well and truly an effective gateway into the industry if your stuff is both unique and also seen by the right person.

M4SONIC will be playing at this years Stereosonic along side Boys Noize, Clockwork, Calvin Harris, Flight Facilities, Jamie Jones and many many more. Get tickets here.

He also put together a pretty tight Stereosonic mashup on the pads ahead of his appearance.
