Biography<\/strong><\/summary>\n

Juan Mauricio Schmid Bello<\/strong> \u2014 born on 8. November 1993 in Bogot\u00e1<\/a><\/strong>, Colombia<\/a><\/strong>, is a Swiss-Colombian musician, artist and philosopher based in Switzerland. Active since 2009 under the name monsterwheel<\/a><\/strong>, he works across music, art and philosophy in a transdisciplinary way.

After departing ways from BlackMedia<\/strong><\/a> in 2017, the birth of his solo career begun in 2019 releasing \u2205<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Empty Set<\/strong>, a mathematic alternative record weaving numerology, astrology and sonic minimalism into a generational manifesto blending the sounds of Boards of Canada<\/strong><\/a> and Radiohead<\/strong><\/a>.

In 2023 followed \u2647<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Pluto<\/strong>, the obscurest and transformative millenial work dedicated to all but specially the GenX<\/a><\/strong> (1971-1984), to avoid the apocalypse of ultracapitalism and the black earth possibilty. Alongside music, Schmid Bello<\/strong> has produced 35 unique artworks to date, structured into two distinct eras \u2014 Antarctic<\/a><\/strong> (2012\u20132015) and Pacific<\/a><\/strong> (2015\u20132019).
