SPECTATE EP (INCL. MAX COOPER REMIX)

Barcode: 880319754814 On the heels of 2015™s hyperactive Longanimity EP on Leisure System and the recent Sense of Purpose LP via Bloc Records, JoeFarr returns to Leisure System with the Spectate EP, another tactile and punishing contribution to the ongoing GRIDLOCK series complete with an incredible remix from sound scientist Max Cooper. Farr throws down heavy drum grooves on title track šSpectate,› with hi-hats and synth zaps creating malevolent movement around a blurry vocal sample. Teetering on the edge of total malfunction, it lurches and leaps in beguilingly twitchy ways. Max Cooper explodes the track on his remix, offering increasingly distorted sections that lure in the listener before shattering the structure. On the flip side, šComp Killer› and šIn Focus› are two slices of deliciously raw techno, featuring shuddering bass and searing melodies sure to split open any dance floor. The fifth edition in Leisure System™s ongoing GRIDLOCK 12› series, the Spectate EP is yet another example of JoeFarr™s able hand at creating fierce, infectious, and irregular techno. 01 Spectate 02 Spectate (Max Cooper remix) 03 Comp Killer 04 In Focus
