CUSTOM TYPE - Ballet Mechanique, the music-outlet of Jeroen Borrenbergs (36), is live. After a few years of silence the Dutch graphic designer is getting ready to release new tracks. His website is a state of the art peace of artwork, superbly programmed by ComaKid.
For his upcoming promotion Jeroen asked me to create a special font for him. As a co-founder and graphic designer at Stoere Binken Design he creates his own artwork and therefor had some specific wishes. The font should have ’soul’. He gave me some sketches for his logo that I should use as a starting point. The result is a very narrow, round and warm, kinda techno, monocased font called Ballet Mechanique (what else).
Ballet Mechanique will be available in 3 weights (regular, bold, black) and 2 widths (narrow, wide).

Jeroen Borrenberg’s debut work, in 1996, received hugely praising reviews. Muzik Magazine made Evolutionary Entities techno single of the month, Laurent Garnier and Mister C constantly played it in their sets and Morgan Geist just said “I won’t do a review here - let me just encourage all of y’all to listen to and/or pick up the new Eevolute 12″. Beautiful stuff - complex, melodic, soaked in just enough reverb to take it to another room. Check or regret.”
