Lennart Hassels

Born in 1988, learning and playing acoustic and electric guitar since I was 16. Not long after, drums and piano.

I’ve been a musician in different rock, pop and metal bands over the years, namely German melodic death metal band Wrath, Progressive Rock band These Racines and multiple combos in my time studying Media Music in the Netherlands in my twenties.

My more recent musical projects include a Grunge project named Below the Dirt with singer/songwriter Ryan Vanicin and drummer Josh Bennett from the US, as well as my own solo metal project called This Manipulator.

Having invested much time and effort into improving my mixing & mastering skills for music of different genres in my humble homestudio, I also started selling my own instrumental tracks/beats on different marketplaces on the net.
