new kanada enters the year of darkness with two cuts of techno that go straight for the throat. raw house music for mixers, jackers, and people of ill repute everywhere. side a features a slamming remix of murr’s “stay” track by adam marshall. murr’s original moog bassline gets jacked into a dj-friendly mix weapon of the highest calibre. 10+ minutes of erratic hats, swung snares and some weird noises that would do octave one proud. sibe b is a homage to our favourite analog mixer of days gone by - the numark dm1950. mood edit embraces the chaos of chicago house, and the class of new york city in this long playing dub tool that will be sure to evoke fear in the legs - and passion somewhere inbetween. complete with off kilter bassline, counterpoint bump, and a long deep mix for the heads.

eargasmics 10th release showcases 3 different perspectives of the house sound from 3 different producers. all night dance - the debut from bjak and the unofficial eargasmic theme song, is an ultra smooth stomper thats reminiscent of the mid 90s loft party scene. a definite pick for all the deep heads. tetrode musics (and long time eargasmic member) specter adds his signature 5am beatdown sound style to this 12inch with i dont need. on the flip, the sun god makes a valiant return to eargasmic with an 11 minute beat track pulled out of his archives thats, as you ve guessed, complete mayhem.
