Der Assistent

Der Assistent, the moniker of Berlin-based producer Tom Hessler, crafts a unique blend of dubby pop music. His soundscape is characterized by elements reminiscent of Timmy Thomas grooves, jazzy Casio-tones, and westcoast woodwinds, often intertwined with laid-back amateur guitar solos. The narrative in his trippy songs oscillates between mystery, crime, and amore, creating an atmosphere that seamlessly unites melancholy and bliss.

Der Assistent played in Dubstation at Fusion festival 2026.
