Enter the neon-soaked shadows of a future undone. “Identification Division” is a cinematic electronic dance track that pulses with dark energy and cyberpunk soul. Inspired by the world of Blade Runner, this 118 BPM composition fuses haunting synthscapes with propulsive rhythms, evoking scenes of rain-slicked streets, lost identities, and AI dreams.

With its analogue warmth and retro-futuristic atmosphere, “Identification Division” balances tension and groove, inviting listeners into a dystopian city where machines breathe and memory is currency. It’s both danceable and introspective - equally at home in a midnight set or a concept playlist exploring the human condition through sound.

The track builds with layers of synth arpeggios, industrial textures, and a brooding bassline that drives forward like a replicant on the run. This is music for movement, for reflection, for drifting through urban mazes and digital minds.

Perfect for dark clubs, immersive DJ sets, or sci-fi-inspired audio-visuals, “Identification Division” is more than a track - it’s a scene from a film yet to be made.

Step inside the glitch. “Microdot” is a dark, hypnotic journey through the shadowy corners of techno where rhythm fractures, sounds mutate, and time folds in on itself. Gritty, raw, and pulse-driven, this track captures the disorienting clarity of micro dosed perception, heightened awareness wrapped in minimal, mind-bending sound design.

Driven by an unstable groove and glitch-infused textures, “Microdot” pulses like a broken transmission from an underground machine. It's a track designed for the brave - for DJs who favour the edges of techno and for listeners seeking something a little stranger, a little darker and a lot more interesting.

Unapologetically minimal and deeply immersive, “Microdot” excels in tension and atmosphere. Whether in a sweat-soaked warehouse or on headphones in the early hours, it invites listeners to get lost in the noise between the notes.

When the light hits just right, everything changes. “Golden Hour” captures that fleeting, magical moment between day and night with radiant synths, uplifting energy and a groove built for movement and memory.

Blending euphoric melodies with driving rhythm, this track moves effortlessly between cinematic atmospheres and dancefloor momentum. The opening builds with glowing pads and melodic layers, evoking the warmth of sunset skies before breaking into a powerful drop that’s equal parts emotional and energizing. It’s a track designed to connect - whether in a festival crowd, a sunset rooftop set or on headphones during a moment of reflection.

“Golden Hour” is more than a dance track, it’s a feeling. It captures nostalgia, optimism, and the beauty of transition. With its melodic strength, immersive textures and polished production this release is ready to resonate with both DJs and casual listeners alike.

LFO juice is the sonic identity of Carl Jacques, lover of electronic music since an embarrassingly early age. The first album I bought was Autobahn by Kraftwerk and I scraped enough money together for a rubbish synth as a teenager (without advice from The Human League.)

Anyway, I present to you a gaggle of ambient/melodic/EDM tracks produced on a humble lap-top with a modest collection of software. Early influences by Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, 80s synthpop, Underworld, The Chemical Brothers and all things EDM. Currently being inspired by Daniel Avery, Ben Bohmer, Jon Hopkins and Atli Orvarsson. Well, you can dream. 

If you like anything then spread the word; If not then I'm Ed Sheeran's alter-ego. I made that last bit up in case his lawyers are reading, which I doubt very much.
