**** IN ELECTRONIC MUSIC WE TRUST ****

Chris Bernhard creates driving, hypnotic, and emotionally resonant electronic music. His signature style - Dark Melodic Minimal - is the result of years of evolution, sparked by his first rave experience and shaped by early productions on the MC-505 and Virus Indigo.

Following releases on labels such as DTL-Records, Dark Crow Records, and the acclaimed Tour de Traum compilation series, Chris now prefers to release his music independently - direct, uncompromising, and personal. His tracks are crafted in his own studio: stripped-down, intentional, and full of atmosphere.

You can catch him live on DigitalXRadio Frankfurt, Profoundradio.com, and at afterwork events, where he performs extended 3-hour sets made up entirely of his own productions.

Based in Heppenheim, near Frankfurt am Main, Chris delivers electronic music with depth - minimal, melodic, and unmistakably his own.

All tracks are free from AI-generated parts!

Hegstraction is a UK Techno Producer & Abstract Artist. Featured on Beatport Top 100, BBC Music Introducing & Awakenings. He also runs the Bad Haz Techno record label.

hegstraction@gmail.com
badhaztechno@gmail.com

HIGHLIGHT Track, Dark & Dirty Beats, played by Joris Voorn live at Awakenings New Year's Eve 22/23, Gashouder, Amsterdam.

ALBUMS Movement (2019) Light (2020/21) Space (2021) Dark Minimal Constructs (2023)

Currently releasing tracks for The Minimal, Melodic, Hypnotic, Industrial & Hard Series.

BACKGROUND Hegstraction grew up in the 80s & 90s heavily influenced by the emergent electronic music in Amiga, Nintendo & PlayStation video games & the movie soundtracks by electronic music pioneers Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis & Kraftwerk. Recent influences from German techno DJ/producers Felix Krocher & Stephan Bodzin.

INSPIRATION His inspiration differs from most artists as it comes from the dance floor where he is most at home. From over 20 years experiencing DJ sets worldwide throughout Europe, Asia, South & North America, his ideas have been shaped.

METHODOLOGY He approaches each track as a mini set, building up slowly, using level changes, sounds that stimulate & energize, following Skeletalism (using closely related sounds) & Massification (layering sounds over time) methods.

I'm an Independent Music Producer, mostly Trap, Future Bass, Chill, Electronic, Hip-Hop, EDM...... LIKE and FOLLOW me for more tracks.
