Holland's deep electronic specialist Conforce is to release his next full-length work, Escapism, on Delsin Records in December 2011.
Still riding high on the praise from his last EP, Dystopian Elements, Boris Bunnik has crafted another album of deep digital and authentic analogue bliss. As well as on Delsin, it's appropriately classy labels like Clone and Rush Hour which have released Conforce's work in the past.. The results of which have helped mark out the man behind them as one of the day's most considered sonic craftsmen.
All but one of the album tracks is new and exclusive, with 'Lonely Run' the only one heard thus far, given its inclusion on the aforementioned EP. It was a track which perfectly surmised than man’s musical mission… To combine elements of futurism with real hardware, decent software and to simply go wherever it takes him, be that a landscape doused in dub, formed from a firmer techno template or built on a house groove.
As such, the aptly entitled album is a wholly immersive listen from start to finish. Operating in its own deep and subliminal world of rhythm, it goes from lateral and dubby to more upright and kicking, touching on ambient moments and the odd classist moment along the way.
Rather than ten shades of the same colour, Escapism investigates a number of different moods and tempos. Opener 'Revolt DX' for example suggests a lively pace despite being drenched in echo and reverb. 'Elude' meanwhile is a more roughshod roller torn apart by blistering synths, crisp percussion and prying claps. 'Shadows Of The Invisible' is a mysterious journey into the tense, unknown world of deep space, whilst 'Aquinas Control' floats in a murky, churning and dark underwater abyss... Like the album overall, it's hugely evocative stuff that bares little resemblance to the populist motifs of Chicago-this or Detroit-that.
From start to finish Escapism grabs your attention without being rushed, hurried or over-complicated. It's the sort of album which works on both headphones up-close, but also on a dancefloor at distant thanks to its devilish detail but palpable presence. Unsurprisingly, one of the day's most reliable producer's has turned in one of the year's finest albums...

Took me my damn sweet time to get around to spending time with this, but there's some wonderful music here. "Shadows of the Invisible" is a real standout -- deserves a single release with remixes -- and "Timelapse" is another highlight, going in a totally different direction. I love "Aquinas Control" and "Diversion" as well, with that luscious early '90s R&S/Apollo feel. Great stuff. at 2:34PM on November 29th, 2011

Conforce is always in my bag somewhere...and this LP will go straight in. Diversity in the sound is whats needed in an album and this is full of it. I would regard this as a PROPER album rather than the shitfest of endless dub albums out there with 12 edits of the same track. Pat yourself on the back Boris. Great story, well executed. at 3:29PM on October 13th, 2011

The other day I rediscovered his album on Meanwhile and started to fully embrace the beauty of it. And also wondered how much he has developed as a producer. After listening to the snippets of "Escapism" it seems as if he has outdone himself again. Timeless stuff. Will dive right in .... at 9:16PM on October 5th, 2011
