Belgium artist Sonmi451 creates his own blend of minimal techno with beautiful and warm sounds with a resemblance to the more atmospheric stuff that is released through labels like Mille Plateaux, Scape, Kompakt, etc… Sonmi451’s work reminds us of Jan Jelinek, Biosphere, Shuttle 358, Thilman Ehrhorn, Twerk, Aeroc and Akufen…

The name Sonmi451 is a character from David Mitchell’s novel "Cloud Altas" who works as a slave-robot in an underground diner place, in a society called Nea So Copros in the distant future. It’s quite a sympathetic humanod, who’s aspiring efforts to become enlightened are brutally oppressed by a totalitarian, consumer-driven regime. And with Sonmi451, Bernard Zwijzen delivers his first 50 minutes of creative and top quality atmospheric electronic for U-cover records.
