Greg Schappert aka Donor, co-founder and label manager of Miniscule, was born in New York in 1979. Having lived in cities such as Barcelona, Madrid, Tokyo and Brooklyn, where he currently resides, Greg has acquired quite a few musical inuences. However, it was the harder, darker and minimal sounds of cities such as Birmingham, Berlin and Detroit that originally sparked his interest in electronic music. Never ending club nights in the later half of the 90's saw Greg wanting to take on a more proactive approach to music through DJ'ing which ultimately lead to music production.

Tom Russell aka Truss was born and bred in a small hill top village on the outskirts of Cardiff in South Wales. A background in classical music and a youth spent partying and record shopping serves as a grounding for all of Tom's music. His production skills are also regularly in demand to provide music for many world wide advertising campaigns, TV idents and short films.

When the two first came into contact sometime towards the end of 2006, they instantly realized that they had an immediate understanding of one another's musical background and desired direction. Finding that connection has resulted in the two continuing to work together on many joint projects, varying their style between more deep and hypnotic minimal techno to the more driving industrial style techno that they both grew up listening to. Both Greg and Tom's DJ and live sets hold true to their love of raw electronic grooves and tripped out soundscapes.
