"A 130 bpm peak-time techno transmission with dark melodic notes built around a spacecraft breaching critical altitude during a high-risk descent onto a mysterious alien planet. Turbulent drones and dark, driving percussion set the pressure as a filtered female ship's computer voice delivers escalating warnings through radio-static textures. Urgent 'Pull up' commands push the tension to breaking point before the track finally resolves into an ethereal release, closing with a single word, 'Landed', marking survival after a perilous descent."

Critical Altitude

Oscillation of Life explores the rhythmic cycles of human experience through a powerful blend of psytech and peak-time driving techno. At the center is “Charred,” a track inspired by the emotional tension of burnout and the path back to creative energy. Deep pulsating basslines and hypnotic rhythms evolve into uplifting progressive synth layers, reflecting the movement from struggle to renewal and capturing the resilience that emerges through life’s constant oscillations.

HIGHLIGHT Track, Dark & Dirty Beats, played by Joris Voorn at Awakenings, 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.
