transcendent welcomes versalife! tip!

conforce in his own label...coole sache

part 3 of the soul of the automaton series. this is soulful techno, electro with subtle ambient elements and idm echoes, touching the more experimental side of music here and there. bunnik has not completely severed his links with the past but he is unafraid of the future. this is again emotive, futuristic, concise, dissonant utopian glitch music that s equally as good for the club as it is for the soul. constructed on the west coast of holland in the harbour city of rotterdam.

part two from a new series called soul of the automaton.

a new transmission from the pasadena oceanlab by versalife. the start of a new saga where he explores the boundaries between electro romantic sounds and glitchy idm percussions. tracks that have already been highly sought after since his live performance at boilerroom in doornroosje, nijmegen earlier this year. a few people might have heard this release in an already legendary dj set by objekt during the freerotation festival this year. more parts are on their way.

following his recent releases on delsin and deep sound channel the prolific dutch artist conforce is back on his own transcendent imprint with some filmic and atmospheric tripping techno action. hypothetical future point sends you further into the more ominous and industrial spaces of his alias. spiritual techno with with a wink to the past. boris crafts music with attention to detail and blends influences from his silent harbour and hexagon monikers that seems inevitable.

known for his more elegant and subtle atmospheric techno music though, conforce is never afraid of deviating from his safe zone. sometimes a change of environment can bring new musical influences and shine new light on existing musical projects. there is a small narrative about this release. what happens when you place an island boy in an multicultural harbour metropolitan city? stuff might get a little bit more rough edged from time to time. a transition from the serene tranquility of the islandic coasts to the impatient impulsiveness rush of the metropolitan city. narrative collapse ep contains music created though more impulsive machine jamming. be ready to get a fix of rotterdams real danger. play loud!

a new four track ep by hexagon aka conforce on his own imprint. doing what he does best. making deep imaginary techno music with otherworldly authentic atmospheres without any concessions. the title track sucks you into desolate interstellar territories paying hommage to 606 rhythms with emotive strings on top that determine the total atmosphere of this killer advanced electro cut. human meets machine in it s purest form. pitch black leans on accurate programmed heavy broken percussive patterns and is the most functional track of the ep. functional but it s haunting atmosphere lifts this to a different dimension. continuum dives deeper into sonic territory with a mysterious stealth missional vibe caused by it s unpredictable sparkling crispy effects and mysterious pads. systematic repetition leans on pulsating modular bleeps and dubby basses and is the most techno orientated cut of the whole ep. it wouldn t be a conforce record if there weren t any strings and pads attached to it.

stepping up for the second release on his own transcendent label, the unstoppable conforce offers up four more tracks of studiously deep and moving music that is as filmic as it is atmospheric. his travelogue ep features four cuts that continue ion the dutchmans fine tradition of fusing moods and grooves in submerged and aqueous ways.

transcendent starts a white label (hand stamped) series besides the regular label output. the first release is by leeuwardens finest electronic music veteran marcel caron, hailing from the north of the netherlands. he presents two carefully crafted dark haunting uncompromising ambient techno tracks. prepare for an ultimate dystopia of dark hardware electronics. including two hexagon (aka conforce) remixes for the different hours.pressing of 150 copies!

having made a name for himself as a heavyweight ambient, electro and techno producer as conforce and versalife, bunnik is now ready to release his second release on his transcendent imprint.
