Transllusion is the solo project of J.M. Stinson, a highly influential electronic music artist. With a unique blend of futuristic sounds and mesmerizing beats, Transllusion has carved out a distinct niche in the genre. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Der Zyklus, Lab Rat XL, and Dopplereffekt, Transllusion's music transports listeners to otherworldly realms.

Known for their captivating live performances, Transllusion creates an immersive experience that captivates audiences worldwide. Their discography includes groundbreaking albums like "The Opening of the Cerebral Gate" and "L.I.F.E." Each release showcases Stinson's exceptional talent for crafting intricate soundscapes that push the boundaries of electronic music.

Influenced by pioneers like Drexciya and Underground Resistance, Transllusion combines elements of electro, techno, and ambient to create a truly unique sonic landscape. Collaborations with artists such as DJ Stingray 313 and I-F have further cemented their status as one of the most innovative acts in the industry.

Tresor is a Berlin-based techno label that was founded in July 1991 by Dimitri Hegemann. The label takes its name from the techno club that was established in an underground vault after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Tresor was formerly a division of another label, and it has undergone changes to its label code over the years.

From 1991 to 2002, Tresor had the label code LC 7572 / LC 07572. Afterward, from 2002 onwards, the label's code changed to LC 3702 / LC 03702.

Tresor has played a significant role in shaping the techno music scene with its authoritative presence and influential releases. With its roots deeply embedded in Berlin's rich musical history, Tresor continues to be at the forefront of electronic music innovation and remains a respected force within the industry.

Produced by the late James Marcel Stinson and released in 2001 via Supremat, a short-lived sub-label Tresor dedicated to a more abstract and experimental electro sound, The Opening Of The Cerebral Gate was conceived as the second part of the so-called Drexciyan Storms – a whopping stack of seven albums by the Detroit pair released under different monikers within a single year. This phase marks a groundbreaking time for the duo, their cosmos breaking wide open, right at the dawn of a new technological era in electronic music production. All this is deeply reflected in Transllusion’s first album.

2022 marks the 20th anniversary of the passing of James Stinson and the releases of the Transllusion and Shifted Phases albums. In recognition, the rightsholders, their families, and the label have commissioned Detroit-based contemporary artist Matthew Angelo Harrison to re-conceptualize the covers of Tresor's Drexciya-related catalogue.&nbsp;
