Biography of Convextion
Gerard Hanson was born in 1972. He hails from the unlikely environments of Dallas, Texas USA. Little is known about this producer who seems to have Scandinavian roots. His productions have reflections with Basic Channel/Chain Reaction sound. His main inspirations are Juan Atkins and Derrick May. His music also has influences from Stefan Robbers, Red Planet and Carl Craig. He found a way where everything came together: DeEPness, Minimalism and Soul, the Detroit-Berlin connection. In 1994 Gerard Hanson and Dan Kurzius started 'Hardsync', a Magazine dedicated to electronic music reviews and artist interviews. It has been defunct since 1996 as a result of a computer crash. Hard Sync was an outlet for several Texas-based electronic music enthusiasts to reach out to others around the world that shared similar musical interests. He released his first 12' in 1995. Ever since his debut 12' on Matrix in 1995. From 1995-1997, he released 5 EP's, and then only 2 more in the next 6 years until 2005. The reason he produced so infrequently was because when his first releases came out, the tracks were licensed to some big releasers and he did not get paid for them. After that some other labels approached him but just wanted more of the same and didn't really seem to understand his sound. They just wanted more of the same sounds. After that he stopped releasing music and produced only for his personal usage. After a couple of years the label Down Low convinced him to pick up his producing again. He is very careful about sharing his music with the rest of the world. In the last decade he only used the aliases Convextion and E.R.P. (Event Related Potential). E.R.P is an electro-edged moniker. Gerard has remained willingly anonymous since his debut in 1995, but he came out of obscurity for a debut European Live performance in London in April 2006. Why he remains unknown is a mystery. In the future we will hear much more from this producer.

Comment: Another outstanding set from Convextion. Like his Channel Two set, it's reminiscent of ambient/idm sounds from the early-mid 90s. And also like that set, it feels almost more like a single composition with "parts" or "movements", than a series of tracks mixed together.
This set is more "ambient" than the Channel Two set. The dubby sounds are more laidback, with washes of sound and some nice melodies floating on top.
Based on the music alone, I would give this set a "10". I'm probably too picky but I'm rating it "9.5" because of voiceovers. One occurs about halfway through the set. Sometimes voiceovers don't really matter all that much, but this one, even though it was short and relatively lowkey, was momentarily disruptive.
The other voiceover occurs near the end, when an announcement is made that an interview will follow. Another disruption, esepcially since the set is winding down.
But overall this is excellent. I would love to hear more sets from Convextion. In the meantime I'm listening to some of his work available on Beatport.

hanson defies the silly bounds of any genre
pigeonholing + just delivers a fantastic set. it's
beautifully melodic with a wonderful sense of
pacing + deep beats. this is perfect for those who
prefer contemplative music in the idm vein.
anyone who loves claro intelecto will also enjoy
convextion, which is not too surprising
since they're both on the brilliant ai records.
enjoy!
