this is the first of two vinyl releases of the channel x debut album >the x files<. andré and mirko decided to put four smashers on this first ep: it kicks off with circus-infused polka minimal tech track >freak show<. next up is >strange girl<, the tooly and soulful vocal tech-house that channel x have become renowned for. on the flip its channel x show how deep their house approach can go on the super sweet male vocal track >snug descent<. last, but surely not least this ep finishes with >we love the x<, a perfect showcase of what channel x stand for: vocals, effects, big basslines and strong loops.
