SuperVision

SuperVision is the primary alias of Richard Blake Hansen, a central figure in the Colorado-based electronic scene that coalesced around the Pretty Lights Music label in the early 2010s. Hansen's background as a veteran DJ with over a decade of experience informs his production style, which prioritizes danceable grooves and rhythmic complexity.

His sound identity is defined by the fusion of classic boom-bap hip-hop aesthetics with the technical flourishes of glitch and downtempo electronica. Having moved to Fort Collins in 2002, Hansen became an integral part of the creative circle that included Derek Vincent Smith (Pretty Lights) and Michal Menert, sharing a collective interest in sample-based soul music. His work is characterized by high-level audio engineering, a result of formal training that distinguishes his 'Sound Science' from more amateur bedroom productions. Critically, he is viewed as a key architect of the 'electro-soul' subgenre, maintaining a legacy of free-release culture that helped define the independent electronic music landscape of the 2010s.
