I find it absolutely fascinating and, at the same time, truly inspiring thought, that with the untimely passing of Jóhann Jóhannsson in February of 2018 (wow, almost four years ago now!), he still really lives on through the music he made. And not just through his own. And although he left an incredible void, it's not like someone just stepped into his shoes. Instead, a significant number of collaborators and followers that he touched through the years continued to carry his legacy through their own unique sound. His light didn't go out - it just exploded into hundreds of thousands of fragments of many other lights, that are now expanding, forming their gravity, and with time growing larger. And I sort of wonder if that would have happened if it didn't happen the way it already has. That is an absolutely fascinating and truly inspiring thought with which I opened this write-up. In today's track premiere, we have precisely just that. Danish composer Jonas Colstrup worked closely with Jóhann throughout the years, collaborating on scores for the Japanese films Blind Massage (2014) and The Shadow Play (2018). Inspired by the late musician's approach to neo-classical minimalism carried forth with the cinematic elegance, as well as the incredible score by Ryuichi Sakamoto, Alva Noto and Bryce Dessner for The Revenant (Milan, 2015), and contemporary compositions by William Walton and Arvo Pärt, Colstrup gently sculpts a sonic chrysalis of emotion, in which one wants to wait out all current angst. And if this was a blind listening session, you may have even thought I'd uncovered an unreleased Johannsson track, with those scaling chord progressions and the beautiful arrangements performed by the Budapest Art Orchestra and Theatre of Voices. But to be clear, once again, this is not a copy, made from a mould lifted from Jóhann's work. It is an unmatched gorgeous sculpture, on which you may find his imprint, still warm to the touch.

Hi! I'm Trevor, an electronic music producer based in Bristol, UK.

Firstly, I really enjoy listening to other artists here on soundcloud and I will always post a comment or like a track if I'm impressed but I prefer to be followed and "liked" only if you dig my music..... so there is NO OBLIGATION to listen or like any of my tracks😊

I've always been drawn to music, rhythm, melody and harmony. I learnt to play the accordian at age 12, but drums eventually became my main instrument and you will hear my love for groove and rhythmic syncopation in my songs.

I've been playing in bands since the age of 15 and started writing music in 1996 after being inspired by a close friend, who was a talented song writer.

My music is emotively driven. I create music as it's therapeutic and the language that allows me to express myself the most. 

I write what I'm feeling at the time so I have quite an eclectic bunch of songs from #deephouse, #triphop to #chill #downtempo #ambient @synthbased #vapourwave #futurefunk #deephouse

I am a home producer. I use ableton mostly.

 If you like what you hear do follow me on spotify or apple music.
