- Berlin based DJ and Electronic Music Producer originally from South Wales UK.Initially attracted to electronic music through a fascination with ethereal / otherworldly sounds, Distant Sun was firstly inspired by the deep and tribal sounds of Progressive. The percussive elements and long mix transitions widely used in the genre served as a gateway to Techno, where hypnotic repetition and polyrhythmic sequences were particularly inspiring. After around 3 years of DJing, he was inspired to begin learning to produce electronic music in 2006. Some years later, whilst studying a Masters degree in Music Production and Engineering at University, Distant Sun explored the connections between Minimalism and Minimal Techno as a Thesis subject and was particularly drawn to the political principles of atonality put forward by Arnold Schönberg. The concept of atonal music existing as a contrast to popular music held a particular resonance, when considered with the political counter-culture ethos and freedom of expression that exists within the Techno community. It is this ethos that drives Distant Sun’s production & composition methods and DJ style, giving people enough information to dance, whilst not providing enough information to influence their own perceptions of the music. The sound is mostly devoid of melodies and progressions but laden with atmosphere, stripped back percussion and synth noise, all underpinned by a bass that tears through the club system so that the music occupies your feet, but not your mind. Now settled in Berlin, Distant Sun has released music on Credo & KarateKlub labels and DJ’d in various venues in the UK and across Berlin.̸Inverted Particles EP - Karateklub Elevate EP - KarateKlub Vortex EP - Credo Recs
