Plastic Replicant EP

Following releases from Dublin’s Fio Fa & naive label head Violet, LA-based Cromie & Timedance affiliate rRoxymore and various artists compilation Visions Vol. 1, Holly Lester prepares the next chapter of dualistic bleeps, bloops and blends from Utrecht producer Tifra on Duality Trax. Re-imagining vintage club sounds through a contemporary lens, Tifra is no stranger to stretching the electronic music template into new forms and ideas. His left-field house and old-school breaks have found their way onto Gestalt Records and Rough Recordings, and here the producer turns in three cuts of blissed-out electronica, hedonistic progressive and jungle-run club with its sights firmly fixated front left, complete with a wicked remix from one of modern dance music’s most reliable names Roza Terenzi. ‘Plastic Replicant’ is a vocal-laced electro-house roller inspired by the 90s electronic music era, fusing organic, multi-genre blends with ravey continuum high-frequency stabs and deep basslines designed for the dancefloor. ‘Entomology’ captures playfulness with acid-lines and trance-licked melodies, while ‘International Waters’ delights with a trip-hop inspired, downtempo dub aesthetic.
