IntransikBeats is a record label that aims to highlight raw and uncompromising Techno which displays a dark and gloomy musical image. Our network of like-minded people strives to innovate and contribute to a ever growing community of producers and artists, always remembering where we came from and where we want to be.

Starting out as group of independent artists and DJs, involved in and fostering the alternative music scene in Shanghai, China where Intransik has been fortunate enough to be able to host events for many years.

Sound design and audio engineering is an integral part of the team’s creative output. Naturally this curiosity in original soundtracks and post production lead to the involvement in creating and applying various sonic concepts to different media projects.

We have made it our goal to try to capture the sound of these events and the musical output of the artists involved. This vision will be showcased on our label and upcoming vinyl releases starting, along with label events, art installations and various cross-media projects.

Paris based Vince Lorenz is a founding member of Intransikbeats Records. Ever since he started releasing music in 2008 he made a name for himself mainly as a producer, playing a major part in shaping and defining the Intransikbeats concept.   
Vince Lorenz found his passion for electronic music at an early age after loosing interest in common mainstream sounds. He was first introduced to it when he discovered House and Techno in the early 2000's.  After starting to produce tracks he ventured into different genres and has found a unique way of encapsulating elements of various influences into his sound.
Nowadays he produces intelligent Techno in its' various forms. He has developed a unique way of mixing raw, industrial and cleaner soulful elements, inviting his audience to join him in his abyssal atmosphere.
Often collaborating with various artists from all over the globe, he is always on the lookout for fresh sounds and keeps organizing quality projects.

DanClouds is a London-based DJ and producer. His first exposure to the craft was at 13 years old, when he started mixing Drum N' Bass/Jungle. His initial passion for these two styles eventually transitioned into a gradual but concrete devotion to electronic music. It started to properly hit him from going to the Strawberry Sundae events in Vauxhall (made famous throughout the nineties as a ''hotspot'' to discover the oldschool roots of the genre). Eventually, he also began appreciating the very singular intricacies of the US and UK variants of garage. These are the foundations of the 40 year old's career; the birth of his son put his projects on hold for several years, though he is now back in his element with a special focus on digital shows in the metaverse, more specifically on the very music community-oriented Sansar platform. He has also been extremely productive in the studio with very promising experimentations across genres ranging from minimal to melodic techno. 
''Music has always taken me to another place,'' he enthuses. ''After experiencing a very difficult childhood, I've been finding comfort in the transcendent nature of these sounds and the craft. Without music, life would be a mistake. It brings people together in such a beautifully tribal way.''
The many core influences shaping up his blueprint sound are; Chemical Brothers, Cut Copy, Depeche Mode, Future Islands, Hot Chip, and Moderat. He is a fervent believer in the importance of pushing the boundaries of the various genres in electronic music (which is backed up by the audible dedication to this particular philosophy in his own mixes and productions).
Keep an eye out for Dan's upcoming digital show dates on Sansar, as well as any future offline gig dates TBA.
