Triforce is a Sydney-based electronic duo consisting of Charlotte Lohmann and Ryan Smith. They occupy a unique niche within the Australian 'bush prog' and global progressive psytrance scenes, often associated with the Zenon Records aesthetic.
Their sound identity is defined by a high-contrast blend of Smith's background in metal and Lohmann's training in jazz and soul. This manifests as a technical, dark, and cinematic form of trance that incorporates live instrumentation, specifically distorted guitar and sophisticated keyboard harmonies, into a 4/4 psychedelic framework. Their work is often conceptual, drawing heavily from themes of sacred geometry, ancient mysticism, and 'sacred science.' Critically, they are respected for their production clarity and their ability to bridge the gap between the repetitive nature of dance music and the narrative complexity of progressive rock. They represent a sophisticated evolution of the Australian outdoor festival sound, moving away from generic tropes toward a more 'intelligent' and instrumentally-dense psychedelic experience.
