architect was created in 1998 and can be easily described as the most outstanding and fascinating of daniel's projects. musically, architect are a fusion of multiple styles – primarily focusing on minimal techno, glitch and drum'n'bass. however architects greatest feature is that the use of slow tempos and occasional long vocal samples manage to combine with tight and forceful rhythms to render the music suitable for both listening and dancing. architect have proven their mettle on five full-length album releases and on countless acclaimed concerts world-wide.?

architect's recent release: consume adapt create is a unique blend of atmospheric idm, cinematic samples, powerfully distorted sequences, ramming electro grooves, razor-sharp breakbeats, and haunting ambience. music to move the dancefloor while still creating more than enough depth and texture for heavy listening through your headphones.?
daniel myer demonstrates his astounding compositional skill through his use of surgically placed sounds, unrelenting beats and complex, intelligent arrangements. creating a powerful mix of both synthetic noise and organic emotion.
