Wintermute is a moniker of Florian Förster alias known as mal_function, which he uses for all of his bass-driven music productions. He excels in producing eclectic musical pieces, which vary from deep, minimal drum’n'bass tunes to techno and dubstep excursions. Beside his love for abysmal basslines and touching melodies, he is also delving into details of sounddesign and scoring.

Whilst there are some high-profile remixes available for purchase, most of his drum’n'bass productions were released under Creative Commons Licence by the german netlabel digitalGEWITTER and the demoscene-related NoSYS Productions.

His current productions received dj support by Kano (Sinuous Records, DSCI4/UK), Lightwood (Santorin/GER), Neonlight (TrustInMusic, Ammunition Rec./GER), Acid_Lab (Basswerk, Syncopathic Rec./GER), sh1 (AlphaCut, Santorin/GER), Oli Benet (Rollplayerz, ESP), Deep Focus (Velcro City Rec., digitalGEWITTER/UK), to mention a few.
