Premiere: Pointcloud Returns to Aftertech Records With “Brief Encounter,” Out September 4

Amsterdam-based producer and DJ Pointcloud (Adriaan Oudemans) is carving out a distinct space in melodic techno and progressive house, pairing driving, groovy rhythms with deep, atmospheric synth layers. He returns to Aftertech Records on September 4 with a new EP, Two as One, and we’re hosting the exclusive premiere of its standout track, “Brief Encounter.”

A Sound Shaped by Depth

Pointcloud’s recent run includes releases on Eelke Kleijn’s Days Like Nights and on Pillar, each one sharpening a sonic language that’s become distinctly his own. Two as One carries that evolution across four tracks: “Brief Encounter,” “No Need to Cry,” “All I Need,” and a closing remix of “All I Need” from Thom Rich.

The Premiere: “Brief Encounter”

Built around a captivating melodic theme, “Brief Encounter” takes the listener on a journey through lush harmonies and hypnotic rhythms. Each new element feels perfectly placed, gradually revealing an expansive soundscape full of movement, emotion, and elegance.

At Tanzgemeinschaft, we hear a producer trusting the slow reveal over the quick hit. Exactly the kind of patience we look for. Two as One lands on Aftertech Records September 4; press play on “Brief Encounter” below to hear where Pointcloud is headed.
