Eco Futurism Corporation’s “Solarmodern” series continues its exploration of auditory ecosystems with its fourth instalment, diving headfirst into the vibrant currents of Nature HyperTrance. This collection represents a deliberate pivot from the Corp’s earlier work, fully embracing the kinetic, digitally-infused spirit that characterised the dawn of this decade. The compilation draws direct inspiration from the Y2K aesthetic, channelling its distinct vision of the future into a suite of tracks designed for movement. It’s a focused examination of Trance music’s potent, rhythm-driven facet, where synthetic melodies are woven into the fabric of the natural soundscape the label is known for, creating a unique environment for the dance floor.

Within this framework, bentoboy’s “Purple Wisp” arrives as a radiant emotional core. The Denver-based producer conjures a track that balances introspection with an undeniable forward drive. Soaring, ethereal vocals provide a human anchor amidst the track’s intricate architecture, their poignant delivery contrasting with the energetic pace to create a compelling tension. It’s a melodic journey that feels both vast and intimate, a progressive build that swells with genuine feeling without ever losing its danceable pulse. The composition moves with a graceful assurance, making it a definitive moment within the compilation’s high-energy environment. “Purple Wisp” solidifies bentoboy’s offering as a memorable highlight, a beam of colourful light in “Solarmodern’s” digital forest.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label.
