a-bout a-fon

masta-fon is an independent music organisation located in berlin and elsewhere. founded and maintained mainly by doering and schaefer. a-fon has produced, is producing and will forever be producing alternative forms of electronic music without giving a jot about the club scene, conforming to standardstyles, etc. a-fon music is totally free (CC-BY). just download, listen, edit, remix, whatever.
