Born from the combined expertise of the duo’s solo projects, Ex.Hale and Schnallo, Monotone was formed to explore the extraordinary and the unconventional. Their sound immediately resonated with the global electronic elite, earning support from tastemakers like Laurent Garnier, Modeselektor, dBridge, and Rob Hall.
In late 2024, the duo made a significant mark on the Mindwaves Music universe by releasing their debut EP, “Call Your Friends.” This release was particularly noteworthy as it served as the inaugural launch for G.DUBS, the label’s dedicated platform for deeper, more rhythmic deconstructions. As they continue to redefine the intersection of atmosphere and impact, Monotone remains at the forefront of a new, darker vision for the electronic underground.

Monotone
Monotone is the collaborative live project of Francesco Presotto and Kimi Recor—a sonic exploration that pushes the boundaries of modern club music. By deconstructing traditional compositional standards, they create a subversive framework of dark, atmospheric textures driven by oppressive rhythmic structures and an uncompromising industrial grit.
