With his last release “Dynamism” in 2009, Equitant has proven once again how to re-design and significantly alter his musical approach. The concept for ìDynamismî is an ever-changing activity or process. Various theories or philosophical systems that explain the universe in terms of force or energy. A process or mechanism responsible for the development or motion of a system. Continuous change, activity, or progress; vigor. Equitant’s “Dynamism” unites a cold mix of electronic body music and darkened techno. ìDynamismî is more or less where his 2008 EP ìMekanikî left off. Just as heavy and just as aggressive. 2008 saw a revivification of Equitant’s style and sound, with the “Mekanik” EP release on Black Montanas & Black Leather Records. This EP brought forth a new chapter in the sound structure and design of the music. The music took on a distinct and aggressive techno-EBM sound…like switching on a kind of techno-EBM engine.
From 2003 to the present Equitant has constructed countless remixes for many renowned artists in the electro/techno/EBM scene. Remix releases with worldwide underground electronic labels like: Space Factory, Black Montanas, Black Leather Records, M-tronic, Punch Records, Alfa Matrix and Advanced Synergy. Artist remixes include Jonathann Cast, Miss Duckin’, Millimetric, Yasmin Gate & People Theatre, Adriano Canzian, Mt. Sims, Electroflex, Fake Fur, Starchaser Network, The Dealers, Giving For The Call, Maxx Klaxon, Lethargy, Stamba, Leggo, Plastic Machine, Nexus 6, TK8, Scorpio, Kitsch, Nadia Sohaei, Elite!, Other Aspect, Sindrome, Reizstrom, Red Industrie, Kaball, Nad Mika, Struck 9, Ba’, Strange Connection, Grandchaos, The Crime & Daniel Mark and Orline.
In July 2009 Equitant produced a track called “You Know What I Want” for Yasmin Gate’s (Ex-Dirty Princess) debut release on David Carretta’s “Space Factory Records”, along with other collaborators: T Raumschmiere, Ikki, Douglas McCarthy, Migue Garcia and Petra Flur. Equitant also teamed up with Yasmin Gate for a full collaboration as “Equitant & Yasmin Gate” in 2009, releasing the illustrious “That’s All” EP and the “That’s All – The Remixes” on Black Montanas.
Over the past 3 years Equitant has been a resident live act at the prominent “Klub Atomix” in San Antonio Texas. As well as other live performances in Texas, Mexico City and Bogota Colombia. The Italian producer Adriano Canzian has described Equitant’s sound with three simple words, “Powerful, Sexy, StrongÖsimply amazingî.
Equitant has now signed with “Lektroland”, a sub label of SonicAngel which was launched in 2010 by Bart Becks (former CEO of Belgacom Skynet) and veteran Belgian label owner/musician/producer Maurice Engelen, a.k.a. Praga Khan of the group “Lords of Acid”. Equitant’s 5th full length album is now in pre-production and will feature vocal appearances by: Yasmin Gate, Lea X & Soho Rezanejad. The dynamic sound on this album will be a vigorous compound of EBM, techno, electro, new beat and italo-disco. Prepare your body for this invasion…
