Built around crisp drum programming and supple low-end movement, the record operates in that sweet spot between restraint and drive. Grooves unfold patiently, letting subtle shifts in texture and timing do the heavy lifting, while melodies remain minimal, almost implied rather than stated.

There’s a quiet confidence running through the release — tracks designed for DJs who value flow and atmosphere as much as impact. “DB12 018” doesn’t chase peaks or trends; instead, it locks into a steady, hypnotic momentum that rewards both close listening and late-night mixing.

A concise but effective statement, this release reinforces Tom Bolas’ ability to strip club music back to its essentials, leaving only rhythm, tension and a deep sense of purpose on the floor.
