High-velocity neurofunk with a surgical, cybernetic edge. Aggressive drums and metallic basslines designed for dark warehouses and high-stakes focus.
Task Horizon is a Swiss electronic duo, formed in 2004 by Aaron von Schroeder and Jonas Ullmann, who have become pillars of the international neurofunk and tech-step scenes. Emerging from Zurich, they quickly gained traction through a series of high-impact releases on labels like Eatbrain, Evolution Chamber, and DSCI4.
Their sound identity is defined by a 'cybernetic' aesthetic, utilizing advanced synthesis techniques to create complex, evolving bass textures and razor-sharp percussion. Historically, they represent the mid-2000s transition of drum and bass into a more polished, tech-oriented direction, moving away from the organic warmth of jungle toward a colder, more industrial palette. Critical consensus highlights their versatility, noting their ability to pivot from the 'liquid' side of the genre to the most aggressive 'jump up' styles without losing their technical signature. They are deeply integrated into the European D&B circuit, influenced by the pioneering tech-step of the late 90s while pushing the boundaries of modern digital production. Their work is a staple for DJs like Andy C and Pendulum, cementing their role as architects of the high-energy, technical D&B sound.
