Where art and science meet. Creativity leads to innovation and that is what Precursor is striving for. Connecting elements from Electronica and Techno, Dutch producer and composer Quirijn Verhoog delivers music that leans on the verge of two sonic universes. Verhoog has a unique take on music, taking inspiration from his laboratory research as well as his musical background dating back over 20 years. With an immaculate eye for detail, he builds up complex, yet eclectic tracks. In 2021 Precursor joined Arvet Records, a label by Swedish producer Sailor & I starting off with the hit single Human. In 2022 the album GLIA followed, in which Verhoog explores the relationship between neuroscience and sound. The project comes to life with the award-winning videoclip of the single Opulent in which the viewer takes the perspective of an AI, interpreting beauty and nature. GLIA sees many collaborations, including remixes by Vessels, Hunter/Game, VNTM, SQL and various artists from the Arvet label. In 2023 Precursor (NL) teases a new album with the single Reset and appears on the label of Hunter/Game with his track Carbon-based Lifetime which is supported by artists around the world, getting played in clubs like Ritter Butzke, KitKat Club as well as various festivals. Meanwhile Verhoog also works as a film composer, with his first appearance on the short film "Dr Geiger" in 2023 and the Feyenoord documentary "Gimenez" in early 2024.
