KAS:ST is a techno group/act, producers and label owners consisting of members Karol Herse and Manuel Sene. Since its establishment in Paris, France, the group has quickly left a big impression on the techno scene. Their music can be described as taking listeners on a journey through techno music’s dark and gloomy emotions.

Manuel Sene was a professional football player for three years, playing for clubs such as Fc Istres and Nimes Olympique. He eventually left and moved to Paris, where he met Carol Herse. During this time, the duo performed under a different project name, Ka One & St-Sene, mostly house music. Eventually, the pair came in contact with the magical genre techno, which since the first contact became a solemn passion, so KAS:ST was born. During this time, the duo drew much inspiration from artists such as PVNV, AWB, Geinst, and Shlomo.
