Brand new studio work from the US Spacemusic Maestro and one of CDS customer favourites working in the Electronic Music genre!

WOW… It’s now been just over 30 years since CDS released Van Zyl’s first two CD releases on our in-house label Centaur Discs: ‘Celestial Mechanics’ and ‘The Relic’, and this great American composer is still making music and hosting his own radio show ‘Star’s End’!

Moved by the creative impulse Chuck Van Zyl is continually re-imagining the potential of his music.
The four tracks presented here on ‘Transience’ are meant to dwell in the most vibrant parts of our imagination. Propelled by machine dreams and nocturnal musings this studio endeavour ponders the promise of the future and our coming travels there.

Drifting between synthesizer states in a darksome minor key, chords sigh then ascend skyward over building banks of sequencer runs. Pulsing patterns circle and cycle in motor precision as celestial synth-bourne leads and spacey spiralling effects further charge this work. Amidst the metronome tempo and echoing arpeggios, ‘Transience’ enjoys a deep zone mind melt. With so many sounds in motion it is here that Chuck Van Zyl advances vibrantly in his own striking assertion of life.

The energy arcing and sparking through ‘Transience’ is an appeal to the psyche. Somewhere within its sonic logic, mirage collage and electronic harmonics, this album reveals itself to the listener - in a vivid, sonorous language of symbols and ideas.

‘Transience’ is released on 9th March 2025.
