The musical project of UK based musician,<br />
producer, DJ and live performer John Ricketts,<br />
SONAS moves away from his previous<br />
incarnation, into a more diverse musical<br />
world.<br />
With over a decade’s worth of production and<br />
performing experience behind him, SONAS draws in<br />
elements of ambient electronica, as well as more club<br />
orientated sounds.<br />
SONAS uses elements of Ambient and Classical with<br />
techno and progressive house music to create an<br />
emotional and reflective soundtrack. A sound of two<br />
halves, with punchy techno at one end, and delicate,<br />
reflective electronica at the other. Influenced by<br />
Composers such as Christian Henson and Hanz<br />
Zimmer, and his club orientated material having a<br />
sound akin to Jon Hopkins and Max Cooper.<br />
His albums have received praise from fans and<br />
industry peers alike, and his singles have been played<br />
to dancefloors across the UK, europe and beyond.<br />
