It was during these late 1970s experimentations of sound collages made with tape loops, field recordings and turntablism that Masin discovered a new way to express his musical self which culminated in the release of his debut album Wind in 1987.

[3][4][5] Masin's first release Wind in 1986 (self-released and distributed for free) was a personal project originally conceived as a gift to give out at small local gigs and to friends.

From this album, the track "Clouds" was sampled by Björk ("It's in Our Hands"), To Rococo Rot ("Die Dinge des Lebens"), Nujabes ("Latitude" and "Mystline"), The Black Eyed Peas and Post Malone ("Big Lie").

[3] Another successful collaboration struck in 2014, following a show in Mantua (Italy), with Luciano Ermondi and Paolo Mazzacani of the duo Tempelhof which resulted in two albums – Hoshi (2014) and Tsuki (2016) – two EP of remixes and two singles, all released on the Italian label Hell Yeah Recordings.

London-based design and branding agency Commission Studio curated the art direction and photography of the LP, in collaboration with the photographer Luke Evans and Imprimerie du Marais, a Paris-based print atelier.
