Vienna-based producer Wingz, real name Markus Kocar, has developed a strong reputation within the modern minimal and tech-driven side of drum and bass through precise sound design, clean arrangement work, and a consistent focus on low-end movement. Emerging through releases on labels including Overview Music, Sofa Sound, Blackout Music, VISION, Flexout and Context Audio, his catalogue balances detailed engineering with club-focused functionality.
Much of Wingz’s rise has been closely tied to Overview Music, where his stripped-back but highly physical approach to drum and bass found a natural home. Across multiple EPs, collaborations and compilation appearances, he has become associated with a colder, spacious style that prioritises tension, groove and clarity over excessive layering. His productions regularly move between minimal pressure, rolling percussion and more melodic atmospheric moments without losing their functional edge for DJs and systems.
Collaborations with artists including Waeys, Koherent, Creatures, Rueben, YAANO and Submarine have further expanded his profile, while support from DJs across both deeper and heavier corners of drum and bass has helped position him as one of Austria’s most recognisable exports within the genre’s current landscape. His work often blends crisp drum programming with restrained emotional detail, giving tracks enough character for focused listening while remaining highly effective in a club environment.
The release of his debut album Ghost widened the emotional and structural range of his sound while maintaining the tension and precision that define his productions. Whether operating in deeper minimal territory or more driving dancefloor spaces, Wingz continues to build a catalogue rooted in control, atmosphere and detailed system pressure.
