Massano, known for his emotionally intense and melodically rich productions, has become a defining voice in the new wave of progressive and melodic techno. His breakout track The Feeling (released via Afterlife) launched him into international recognition, with his sets now gracing iconic stages from Printworks and Hï Ibiza to Zamna and beyond. His music bridges high-impact energy with cinematic emotion, attracting support from the likes of Tale Of Us, Mind Against, and Kevin de Vries.
In 2022, Massano launched Simulate as a creative hub to showcase not only his own vision, but a broader community of forward-thinking producers. The label quickly gained traction for its hybrid approach to modern techno — balancing melodic textures, dark tension, and club-driven power. The Infrastructure series has become Simulate’s flagship format, introducing new talent while reinforcing its sonic identity.
Now with The Infrastructure 3.0, Simulate reaches its most evolved state. At the core is Massano’s long-anticipated track Renegade Master — a powerful, high-voltage anthem that headlines the compilation. Surrounding it is a carefully curated selection of tracks from both core label contributors and rising talents. Returning names include PACS, TH;EN, Soel & Alphadog, while the compilation also welcomes fresh voices such as Tigerblind, Coeus, KASIA, Dorian, and many more.
Blending raw club functionality with emotive storytelling, the release is designed to fuel everything from peak-time warehouse sets to deeper late-night moments. Whether experienced on a festival mainstage or in an intimate underground space, The Infrastructure 3.0 reflects a genre in constant flux — and a label leading that evolution.
As Massano himself puts it:
“Simulate is more than a label — it’s a space for artistic freedom and progression. With 3.0, we’re opening the door even wider to new voices while continuing to push boundaries. This is our boldest statement yet.”
With The Infrastructure 3.0, Simulate not only celebrates how far it’s come — it sets the tone for where it’s going.
