Originally released in 2019 on Zoot Records, the four tracks here each spiral into their own headspace — from the tropical house mutation of “Effendi” to the tripped-out cartoon funk of “Rocky & Bullwinkle,” everything is raw, loop-based, and full of unexpected left turns.

“Switched On” drifts into Chateau Flight territory with a hazy end-of-world atmosphere, while “Finagling” goes breaksy and twisted, flirting with highlife and lo-fi funk.

This is club music from the margins — playful, percussive, and full of grit. For fans of MPC house, mutant funk, and deep crate pressure.
