A sonic journey brought to you by Sync 24's prestigious Cultivated Electronics label, this groundbreaking release seamlessly bridges the past and future of electronic music.

Drawing inspiration from his 1995 classic debut album, 'Elements Of Life,' 'Life Cycles' pays homage to its original artwork while delivering previously unreleased Electro gems from the '90s. Cisco Ferreira, an icon in the industry with nearly three decades of experience, artfully intertwines his musical roots with the contemporary wave of talented producers. "I have been making electro music for nearly 3 decades now and excited to see that it is in demand with this new wave of talented producers out there. 'Life Cycles' is an album where I explore my older past and connect with the future, 2020 and this new electro generation," says Cisco.

Cisco Ferreira's journey in music started when he discovered Acid House in London clubs. His experience as an assistant sound-engineer in renowned recording studios allowed him to translate feelings into frequencies for artists from various genres. Collaborations with legends like Adonis, Fingers Inc, Marshall Jefferson, and Derrick May paved the way for his influential career.

In 1994, Ferreira and Colin McBean signed a record deal, releasing 12 EPs and 3 albums that set a global standard for high-quality underground Electro and Techno. Today, The Advent stands as Cisco's solo project, celebrated worldwide for its trademark raw, energetic sound. The Advent's Electro music continues to inspire emerging artists, including his own son and occasional collaborator, Zein.

'Life Cycles' is a captivating journey through classic old-school Electro vibes, ranging from the robust machine funk of tracks like 'This Is Not' and 'Vast' to the mesmerizing acid excursions of 'Panda.' The album also delves into the groovy beats of 'L.U.' and 'Stasis V2,' while the deeply hypnotic 'Live@Motor 1998' showcases The Advent's extraordinary live performance prowess.
