zirconst | ARCOLOGY - 2023 Album Kickstarter @zirconst | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 1 day ago
LIVE ON KICKSTARTER: kickstarter.com/projects/zircon/arcology-the-next-zircon-album
A vast, self-contained, self-sustaining megacity of the far future. The last bastion of human civilization, the Arcology provides everything for its people. Yet despite this utopian life, there is a sense of longing: something lost - something missing from humanity's spirit. What lies beyond its shining chrome barriers? What is left of the natural world?
This is the premise for my upcoming full-length electronic album, the spiritual successor to Identity Sequence, which was funded on Kickstarter back in 2012.
Arcology is a continuation of the sound I've been developing since my first album in 2004. I call it "organic electronic" music, because it combines dance rhythms and synth-heavy production with beautiful, ethereal vocals, acoustic instruments, and more complex compositions that can be enjoyed on OR off the dance floor.
Like in Identity Sequence, you'll hear a range of styles incorporated from breakbeat and future bass to trance and drum & bass. My production style has continued to evolve, incorporating new elements of modern 'bass music', rap vocals, and custom virtual instruments.

Arms Open Wide by zircon featuring Jillian Aversa (vocals), from the album Identity Sequence. Female vocals drive this house / vocal trance EDM track which uses airy and light melodies, chords, and synthesizers to create a dreamlike and innocent mood.
Identity Sequence is an electronic concept album inspired by science fiction novels and anime, specifically cyberpunk like Ghost in the Shell. It was funded on Kickstarter in 2012 and released the same year, The style of Identity Sequence could best be described as organic electronic dance music. It is my own interpretation of the interaction between man, machine, and environment - how our emotions and actions change and shift through technological advancement, and how they stay the same. More specifically, its progressive trance, dubstep, drum and bass, breakbeat, atmospheric downtempo, and many other highly rhythmic electronic subgenres rolled into a cohesive body of songs that is meant to be listened to from beginning to end in a single session.
