Merse

Al ‘Merse’ Mersom is an electronic musician and DJ, basedin Bristol.Merse spent 10 years in the Army travelling the world where not only did it turn his hair completely grey, it exposed him to a wide variety of cultures influencing his musical interests today. His music doesn’t feature much in the way of Bulgarian Bagpipes but working in communications led to a lot of white noise exposure and no doubt led to his love of EDM. Several tours of Northern Ireland and Bosnia meant extended periods sat on top of mountains and EDM played a large part in providing mental stimulation and alleviating boredom.Growing up in the 80s synth pop era also of course had a big influence to his current style and he mixes progressive trance, house, melodic techno
