Twice Like Rice LP

Stevie Cox and Ansboy: two powerhouses of the Glaswegian club scene join forces for their collaborative debut EP on Rhythm Section INTL- ‘Twice Like Rice’. It’s a weighty four-track EP designed for the dancefloor, taking in myriad influences from dub techno, breaks, trance and good old fashioned house music. The Ep is full of deep, pulsating rhythms, lush textures and emotive peaks – all road tested in Stevie’s Iconic home turf: Sub Club. Stevie Cox has long been a name long ruminating on everyone’s lips, as a resident DJ of the iconic ‘Sub Club’ with an ever-growing tour schedule and back catalogue of releases via the likes of Klasse Wrecks and Optimo. Whilst the name Ansboy may be new to some, it is a fresh alias for the grammy nominated producer and mixdown engineer Robert Etherson who has long been a staple in the Scottish scene with an international touring repertoire under his belt. The two friends met in their hometown of Glasgow and began their musical journey together last year after Robert taught Stevie how to do mixdowns. The pair clicked effortlessly, quickly discovering they shared the same passion for emotive, deep and progressive dance music. Their first track together – which took shape in the form of ‘Drift’ – a high-energy synth led anthem, came out with a special selection of tracks curated by Bradley Zero for his exclusive SHOUTS Summer sampler in 2025. For the Twice Like Rice EP, their work evokes all corners of the dancefloor, kicking things off with ‘GC’ – a peak time breaks-infused trancey-heater – a master class in building dancefloor tension which gives way into a searing crescendo. Things spin towards a darker percussive focus on the more intense ‘Twice Like Rice’. On the b-side things return to blissful euphoria with ‘Virgil’ – a warm up dub-techno ballad, before the emotional release of ‘Subculture closure’ inspired ‘Carter21’.TechnoDubTechnoHouseBreaksTrance
