"I'm very excited to work with deep medi again. I was buzzing to be releasing topper top with them on their 10th anniversary and it's even better to be back for their 20th". Sir Spyro Kicking off our 20th anniversary year, and arriving 10 years after his iconic release 'Topper Top', grime, dubstep and UK bass pioneer Sir Spyro returns to DEEP MEDi with his new dancefloor rattling EP, 2ND SQ. The EP opens with the unrelenting '2ND SQ', the track's stuttering hi-hats and all consuming bass cut through by an icy, industrial-sized snare. The desolate 'Be Afraid' creates a sense of vastness via its minimal production, resulting in an eerie and energised track designed for dark warehouse raves.'Diagonal' continues in the same dark vein, the track's brooding,looping production sure to send listeners into a mystified trance. Closing the EP is 'Patch Bae', a glitchy joyride that calls to mind the16-bit era of gaming, leading listeners on an exhilarating, kaleidoscopic journey. 2ND SQ A1: 2ND SQ A2: Be Afraid B1: Diagonal B2: Patch Bae 13th Feb 2026 (MEDi145)
