'Transit' signals the bold new sophomore album from Seattle-based electronic producer Hanssen. Further expanding upon the distinctive sonic palette exposed on 'Seven Years Week' (Hush Hush, 2014), Hanssen’s cinematic leftfield soundscapes are now taken into more confident, playful territory. Dreamy nostalgic synths, spacious off-kilter rhythms, and space-bound melodies continue to lead the way, and 'Transit' broadens the range by exploring propulsive dancefloor-oriented material as well as spacious, widescreen excursions. Cohesively presented as a continuous journey with each track smoothly seguing into the next, undoubtedly influenced by years of experience as a club DJ, Transit adds another dynamic, engaging, and thrilling release into Hanssen’s catalog.
