His first two productions on the Dutch label
“Keynote” named “Muted Trax pt.1 and pt.2” were a success and got
extremely good critics nationally and more important internationally.
End 2003 ‘Lost memories Pt.1’ was released on Technasia’s SINO label,
and will be followed up by ‘Lost memories Pt.2’ may 2004 containing two
killer tracks already been played by many.. [Clarke, Garnier, Deetron,
Technasia… check the review in the next issue of Mixmag Magazine].
Next to the first two releases of our “Sound Architecture Records”
label there will be new material released on Transmat, Keynote and his
debut album on SINO [end of summer].
As a deejay Joris has been around for a while, spinning since 1997 in
different clubs nationwide. Besides doing his ‘high energy’ live sets
Joris loves dj’ing as well, playing a wide range of techno and house
with his own remark. Never boring and always innovating because that’s
his nature.
In 2004 Joris performed live at the famous Tresor Club in
Berlin,Awakenings Festival in Amsterdam, The Loft in Barcelona and the
Movement Festival in Detroit and Kozzmozz in Gent Belgium.
As his Alter ego Dark Science he produced "The real issue" on Sound
Architecture records including remixes from Deetron and Alexander
Kowalski.
His first release ‘Muted Trax pt 1' on Dutch label Keynote was well
received and picked up on by the likes of Laurent Garnier and Carl
Craig. He followed this success with his first release on Sino last
December, ‘Lost Memories Pt.1' which caused a stir amongst the dance
community and made Joris a recognised name.
If ‘Lost Memories Pt 1' suggested Joris was a true talent, then Pt 2 in
the series confirmed it. The piano filled ‘Incident' charted in almost
every dance magazine of worth, made No. 1 in Mixmag's Techno singles,
was playlisted by John Peel and was championed by none other than Carl
Cox.
Whilst the two 12's that have preceded ‘Future History' do feature in
part on the album, do not fear. This is not just another compilation of
tunes built for the dance floor and then stuck onto CD in the hope of
making some extra cash. This is an album in the true sense of the word.
‘Future History' demonstrates Joris' talent as a musician and album
crafter, along side his already proven skills as a techno producer.
Trying to name standout tracks is not only made difficult by the sheer
number of them, but is also missing the point.
Joris Voorn has made an album that draws on over three years work and
seamlessly blends techno, breaks and electro into a 77minute soundscape
that represents his coming of age. This young Dutchman has everything
it takes to become huge and ‘Future History' could well be the album
that takes him there. |
