Yes, we know Terrence can and has drawn from the whole spectrum of electronic music, as he displayed in his well received “Parkhurst EP” for Thema last year. But for this project the focus is on pure adulterated techno. So it is with great pride that we announce Population One with “The Return”, a rare chance to witness a visionary make history once again. A new chapter has begun: Chronicle. As much as we know TD and THEMA, fans out there would like to see The Parkhurst Part 2, this is a Population One joint and Terrence makes that clear from the start. He’s left the sideways deep house leanings of the previous release behind in favor of the kind of supremely futuristic techno that his master’s touch is uniquely known for, hence our reasoning to invite him to lead the way for Chronicles maiden voyage. “Transition” is pure P1 from the get-go; it’s more ambient than pounding, with layers of humming, bleeping alien satellite communications over a buried kick. This is Detroit at its darkest and most extraterrestrial, and he puts his head further down into the rhythm to run the “Relay” on the second track. The lone, sparkling pad in the background plays off of layers of mutated drums driving deep into outer space at a breathless pace, as the gentle contours of the passing stars and nebulae are mirrored in the sonic progression.
