Reverse Psychology is the debut album of dutch producer and musician Reinier Zonneveld. A multi dimensional piece of art, combining acoustic instruments, everyday and not so everyday field recordings, as well as analogue synthesis. Playing piano and composing music ever since he was a little child, could be the cause of his harmonic - at times classical - approach to electronic music. Although the tracks vary a lot in terms of energetic content, his vision on techno certainly creates a new, cohesive world of sound. By using soundscapes you won't expect on a techno record and putting them in a different context, the listener may react reverse than one would expect on beforehand.
 
Starting with Pneumatik, Reinier sets the tone of the album, deep, hypnotic, aggressive at times, but also deep and emotional. The kickdrum interplays with mechanical noises, as we get exposed to almost church like vocals and outerworld echos, which we will certainly encounter again, be it in other forms. When Different Worlds Collide continues where Pneumatik stopped, only without a drumbeat. It sounds like an orchestral piece, while maintaining the vibe set earlier. Deceptive Guidance takes a more classical, minimal approach to techno. The 4/4 kick drum carries the track along while the audience gets hypnotized by repetitive, but at the same time continously shifting synths and vocals. Sounds get more distorted and heavy, as the listener approaches the title track - Reverse Psychology. Pier cing, aggressive and heavy, the broken beat hypnotises you, until it roughly brings you awareness with a suprising vocal cut. The tension releases a bit when the warm sound of Empty It Is emerges. While having a strong melodic character, it still has enough open spaces left to provoke the listeners own imagination, to complete it with a piece of personal interpretation. Mind Vent takes another, different, direction, heavy 4/4 techno, with a relentless beat which continues where the title track stopped. The tension energy levels rises even more when Plateau 4 starts, which slowly introduces you to dreamy, musical soundscapes, while the groove carriers you along in an almost trance like state of mind. Plateau 2 functions as a sort of intermezzo, retrospective, defining the directions in which the rest of the album will carry the audience. Factor and Haywired Society are even more pow erful and pounding 'four on the floor' techno than everything we've heard before on Reverse Psychology, and will certainly stir up some dancefloors with their heavy basses, deep grooves and unexpected, tense sounds. Just as the title suggest, Landing will bring the listener back to a more relaxed state. Very minimalistic, however at the same time very emotional and full of details. It sets the tone for the next track, Intro, in which all the elements of Reinier's vision on music come together. Subtracted, suggestive beats and impressive background effects carry the vibe for an acoustic piano solo, written and performed by himself. The music and background melts together near the end, and disappears in distance, leaving in one small point, portraid by the fundamental harmonic.
 
Reverse Psychology is an impressive piece of work, reflecting on changes in live, behaviour and above all (the perception of) music. It traverses these differences and forces them together in a  very pleasant and original way.

As one of the most heavily supported and best-sold techno producers of the moment, notorious for his powerful live performances at renowned festivals and clubs, Reinier Zonneveld is currently taking over the contemporary scene with his unique view on techno. In spite of his young age, Zonneveld already managed to score several charting hits, including Beatport overall no.1 “Things We Might Have Said”, which was included on his well-received artist album “Megacity Servant” and later on landed in a Hollywood production. 
Born in the Netherlands on the 30 January 1991, Zonneveld’s introduction to music was through classical piano lessons from the tender age of three. In his youth, Reinier started to compose classical music pieces and performed piano concerts by himself. But it was only when he started his university studies in econometrics and finance and after attending his first illegal raves, that Reinier Zonneveld began exploring music production by way of electronic means. Spending all of his student’s allowance on his first synthesizers during his university time, Zonneveld managed to teach himself his outstanding production skills in his student dorm. 
At the end of 2015, after he completed his two master’s degrees, Zonneveld decided to dedicate all of his time and effort to his ever-growing passion: producing and performing techno music. Soon after, his tracks got picked up by some of the biggest names in the scene, followed by releases on Oliver Koletzki’s Stil vor Talent, Carl Cox’s Intec, Richie Hawtin’s Minus and two official remixes for Moby. 
With his productions and live-sets influenced by both, Zonneveld’s classical background and his own rave experiences, it’s no surprise that his sound contains an incredible breadth, ranging from deep melodic tracks to pounding warehouse acid techno. 
Zonneveld’s musical talent truly shines through in his live performances as he manages to craft hits, both old and new, live on stage. This extraordinary talent enables Reinier to perform a unique all-night live-set on the spot, while creating explosive moments on the dance floor. 
Only just starting his career, Zonneveld has already performed on all continents, from main stages to underground clubs, leaving a thrilled crowd on each dance-floor. If not on the road, Zonneveld tries to find time in his fully-booked tour schedule to create tracks and further hone his skills in the studio, with the experiences and influences gained from his performances and travels as a constant source of inspiration. 

Next to performing and producing music, Reinier runs his own well-received label Filth on Acid, which was founded in early 2017. Filth on Acid will fully enable Zonneveld’s creativity and serves as a platform for his wide view on techno music. All being said, it’s apparent that Reinier Zonneveld will further influence today’s global techno scene with his unique productions and dance floor-shaking live-sets for years to come. It’s just the beginning...
