velocette is the nom de record of san francisco-based ambient
techno experimentalist jason williams. a member of noted techno
producer jonah sharp's reflective records stable, williams has
released the bulk of his work through the label, including the
full-length sonorities by starlight and a trio of singles. wedding
minimal, usually electro-derived beats with sparse, atmospheric
electronics, williams' work is as close in feel to '70s space
music impressarios like klaus schulze and edgar froese as to
contemporary innovators such as sharp's spacetime continuum,
autechre, mlo, and move d. originally a cellist, williams sold his
first instrument to buy a sequencer after being introduced to
electronic music through friends. his first ep, "microcosmik,"
came out on reflective in 1994, and was later featured on the
celebrated synoptics compilation. following live performances at
the german love parade, as well as at events in san francisco and
los angeles, williams released the clockwork ep before joining the
album-length ranks with sonorities by starlight, which critics
compared favorably with the likes of b12, deep space network, and
atom heart. williams' work was also featured on the headtravel
cd-plus released by om records in 1994.
