9bitts began as a curation of electronic music. Over time, it grew into something wider — a space where sound, image, and thought meet.
9bitts is a curatorial project about electronic music — and what it carries when it stops being just entertainment. Each set is chosen with intention: for the energy it has, the moment it evokes, the way its tracks speak to each other.
The blog explores the ideas the music raises. Philosophers, artists, thinkers who looked closely at life and left something that still resonates. Not quotes to consume. Questions to sit with.
It is not a radio. It is not a playlist. It is a perspective — on sound, on culture, on what it means to pay attention.
9bitts is a one-person project, built in Leipzig. Not a label. Not an agency. Someone who believes electronic music deserves to be taken seriously — as art, as culture, as a form of attention to the world.
Leipzig has its own relationship with electronic music — a city that has always made space for subculture, for the underground, for the kind of music that asks something of the people who listen to it.
That is the context. That is the soil.
9bitts uses a custom automation pipeline to publish content daily across multiple platforms. Not to replace curation — but to free it.
The real work happens in the selection: which music, which thinker, which idea is worth the attention of whoever is listening. The machine handles the rest.
This is not a contradiction. It is a decision about where the human effort should go — and where it should not have to.
The name 9bitts does not have a perfect explanation. It has to do with frequency, with bits of information, with the idea that a small signal can carry something large.
Electronic music works the same way — repetition with variation, structure with freedom, technique with feeling. Nine bits. Two t's. A small asymmetry. That is enough.
"If you got here, you probably listen to music in a similar way."
