Notes

This is the story of a man raised and nurtured in the beating heart of four-to-the-floor club music. A man who took a wander down some strange and twisted alleyways. A producer who, while exploring the outer edges of electro, hip-hop and breaks, never stopped listening to and mixing techno, finding in its linear progression a different kind of complexity to the SF-inspired, bass-driven experimentalism of his first clutch of releases. This is the story of Ghost by Nature, an alias of producer Gary Crowne, aka Black Lantern mainstay Krowne.

In a way, Ghost by Nature is the first alias, the source code, the ghost in the machine that is Krowne himself. Growing up, his biggest love was techno music, but it wasn't until he became involved with regular Edinburgh techno shindig 4X4, as promoter and resident DJ, that he decided to finally release some techno.

The new beats required a new alias, and so Ghost By Nature was born. Like his work as Krowne and as one half of Kromatic, liquid funk basslines drive the tracks. They are laced with with deep, percussive synth riffs, shimmering across driving, many-layered rhythms.

His music is futuristic, and futurist, like all good techno. With ghostly washes of acid house, Detroit techno and slick electro felt throughout his music.

A new era for Krowne.
