Hypnocoustics has gone deep on this his third artist album, and album debut on Nano Records. Within the music of ‘Liminal Existence’ Hypnocoustics has meticulously weaved a sonic tapestry of found sound, ambient textures inspired by early avant-garde electronic recordings and studio recordings of his own making in with his own signature psychedelic sounds, melodies and grooves.

Being tucked away in his English countryside cottage during pandemic related Lockdowns gave Hypnocoustics time to focus on careful orchestration and production of all the tracks, and it shows. ‘Liminal Existence’ reveals an artist stretching past boundaries and trying new things, while keeping everything conceptually inside a perfectly curated framework.

In many respects this is an album of ‘mosts’ for Hypnocoustics. There are tracks and moments on Liminal Existence where you will find Hypnocoustics at his most psychedelic, most intense, most atmospheric, most powerful, most experimental, most dance-floor-satisfying and most precise, and this is all for the best, as it showcases an artist who has escaped his comfort zone and strived for artistic authenticity, while laying out a journey through music for the listener.

Amongst all these moments are also included four collaborations, each with their own very unique directions, and Hypnocoustics has done a great job of combining his characteristic feel with those of Mandala, Pogo, Collin Bennun and Dirty Saffi, ensuring Liminal Existence is an intoxicating blend of psychedelic dancefloor sublimity.
