Introducing Cliff Dalton Since mid-2020 Cliff Dalton has been influenced by 80's soundtracks. setting about to create a blend of dark robotic mechanical and deep electro. As an artist, his use of conceptual themes is constructed of elements that create dense atmospheric soundscapes. Probing as an interface between harsh reality and pure fiction. He reveals a surrealistic emphasis on sonic particles into the realms of electro. The Dutch West Coast, home of the Hague, where Cliff Dalton resides, the home of a new producer for Specimen Records 2021. Although not new to the world of producing with several years recording and playing in studios, his attention to de- tail has helped him develop a retro mapping onto his perception of the future. Possibly influenced by Underground Resistance and Drexciya. The accomplishment becomes a metaphor for any small group of people who are battling against a system. The album is an observation of what's happening right now around us. Our interaction with technology and media pervasion and the rise of cybernetics, in a world dominated by corporate ideals. It's only since mid-2020, halfway the first Covid-19 lockdown, when Cliff Dalton decided to start producing his own brand of electro. Cliff is not new to producing; he has several years of experience in recording and playing in studios. He lives in The Hague, also known as the Dutch West Coast, and there are certainly traces of that typical West Coast sound to be found in his music. with his love eighties, soundtracks and he draws inspiration from all those crazy sounds from the past and blend them together into something new. While there is always a dance-floor in the back of his head he is always trying to make it all melodic. Something that stands out is the conceptual way in which Cliff likes to work. All his music does have a strong influence on the mechanical, the robotic, and a dark future vision to bind it all together. All these elements are used to create dense atmospheric soundscapes. Cliff himself functions as an interface between harsh reality and pure fiction while channeling any deep and hidden fantasies into the world of electro by moving air particles. A conceptual way of looking at things and the world around you lies deep into the music. His first releases was available on Specimen Records in early 2021.
