Cancel is a self-acclaimed techno manipulator with firm roots in the underground of hardcore. He displays a raw, straightforward and obscure shade of techno, crafted with a level of quality and complexity that defies the status quo. After fifteen years in the industrial hardcore scene, the artist behind the project felt the impulse to recalibrate his vision and delve into new forms of creation. In 2019, Cancel set out to blur the lines between techno and hardcore by reconstructing their compositions through a lens of progression. Driven by a newfound purpose, he studied the dynamics of analog and modular synthesis and designed a system to channel these influences into his productions while keeping digital components as part of the equation.It’s the hybrid approach that identifies Cancel’s distinctive sound.
