Abstract: In this paper we study an infinite family of Massive Type IIA backgrounds that holographically describe the twisted compactification of six-dimensional SCFTs to four dimensions. The analysis of the branes involved motivates an heuristic proposal for a four dimensional linear quiver QFT, that deconstructs the theory in six dimensions. For the case in which the system reaches a strongly coupled fixed point, we calculate some observables that we compare with holographic results. Two quantities measuring the number of degrees of freedom for the flow across dimensions are studied.
