Panacea

Mathis Mootz (b. 18 August 1976 in Wetzlar, Germany) served an apprenticeship in classical music and was a member of the boy's choir of Windsbach. After studying music engineering at the SAE Institute, Mootz worked with the experimental hip hop/illbient label Chrome, an offshoot of Force Inc Music Works. Over the course of several drum and bass albums and many singles, and as A&R manager for Chrome, later renamed Position Chrome, Panacea became known for pushing the bounds of the drum and bass genre into industrial and hardcore territory, and for energetic DJ sets which fused these genres in a live setting. Mootz's production and recordings are not limited just to Panacea, as he also records experimental, electro, dark ambient and neo-industrial beats as Squaremeter, Disorder 2nd Gen, Warfare, Kate Mosh, Bad Street Boy and Rich Kid. With releases and remixes for labels Position Chrome, Sonic Groove, PRSPCT, Quartz, Mille Plateaux, Ant-Zen, Hands Productions, Turbo-Pimp and Ambush, to name a few.
