Avant.OCS creates raw, hypnotic techno that balances intensity and depth. His mixes flow as carefully built journeys where heavy low-end grooves meet fine textures, and tribal rhythms meet spacious atmospheres. As founder and resident of OECUS, he’s helped shape the collective into a respected name in forward-thinking techno, curating over 400 podcasts and releases that emphasise community, discovery, and strong sonic identity. His own productions, including the concept-driven Prototype series, explore contrast and tension, turning subtle evolution into powerful movement.

This mix showcases a deep, atmospheric sound that still carries punch and drive. Built with patience and precision, it focuses on texture and flow rather than peaks, with a few unreleased tracks that hint at where his sound is heading next.

Symmetrical Behaviour | Deep Learning EP 
[SOMA504D] 

Soma start 2018 with a brand new collaborative project as @conrad-van-orton & @vsk_crs combine to form Symmetrical Behaviour ( https://soundcloud.com/user-487693345 )

Their debut EP, Deep Learning, marries both styles expertly, delivering a solid and hard hitting release. 

Heavy duty, mechanical Techno is the main force in this new project as the duo open with the abrasive Backpropogation before leaping into the pounding rhythms of Convolution Neural Network. Title track Deep Learning takes a more hypnotic approach will still remaining on the tougher edge. Closing the EP with Drug Design, a heady journey fraught with tense drones and saw like synths. 

Soma are proud to welcome a daring new project from two of Techno’s brightest.
