Description

Somewhere between techno, early 90s Italian progressive, and goa trance, the debut EP by Astral Renegades is difficult to pigeonhole, but works wonders on a saucer-eyed dancefloor. The brainchild of a mysterious but established producer, Astral Renegades takes things in a whole new headspinning direction. EP opener Planetarium sets out its stall early, getting straight into trippy, trancey territory within the first few seconds, an acid bassline underpinning the swirl to devastating effect. Wunderland goes even deeper, with a mind-bendingly detuned melody and that ever-present acid bass. Pluto FM on the B-side pushes the repetition to the limit with pulsing synth loops, while EP closer Milchstr brings an element of funk to the bassline.
