Chris Fortier - As Long As The Moment Exists
|
|
After a long list of accomplishments that has seen Chris Fortier do nearly everything possible in dance music, he concurs the final personal goal of an artist album of his own material. 'As Long As The Moment Exists' explores underground sounds and electronic influences, with an experimental twist. At a glance the excursion starts with the ambient soundscapes before shifting to mid-tempo and quirky electronic cuts with searing minimalistic dips through dubby tech house and twisted melodic trips before winding things back with chilled out vibes, to round off an accomplished foray into electronica which is due for release on EQ Recordings in June.

Interview: Chris Fortier
|
|
Balance Record Pool leader, DJ/producer Chris Fortier has been a major force in the American dance music industry for years. Having learned his craft through long sets at his various residencies during his days in Central Florida and later at Twilo in New York , Chris is an old school DJ in the truest sense of the word. He has learned his craft in a way that few DJs can boast. Very few of today's headline DJ's can say they know how to build a night from nothing and create an atmosphere at any point in the nights festivities. However, Chris Fortier is one of the few that can.
