'Spherae' marks the return to scenes of Turin-based producer and DJ Alec Pace landing now on Infinite Machine with a mind-melter EP aimed for the club. Following a 2-year long hiatus from his latest original work 'Future Now?' and previous releases on acclaimed labels such as All Centre and Nous Disques, the Italian producer delivers a new psychedelic blend of post-grime and experimental-bass condensed into a powerful club-ready 4-tracker. Opening track 'Preemah' is a dance-floor heater which plays with the alternation of perpetual crescendos and heavy kick-drops, the rhythmic session is based on a glitchy jersey-club beat while the melodic elements work with uplifting synthesizers and heavy manipulated field recordings. The explorations continues into title track 'Spherae', a peak-time 'ode to speed' which twists elements and a rhythmic session borrowed from the D'n'B scene while mangling them with 'pointillistic' synthesizers and hyper-effected spooky vocals. 'Khroma' follows next, a dark and psychedelic roller which will bring the listener into more obscure sound landscapes which delivers robotic GQOM-inspired beats with overdriven-glitchy synthesizers and tribalesque chants. The alien-shaped beats of 'Qubo' closes-down the release with its glitchy-old-skool-electro vibe, combining a rhythmic session which borrows elements from the old-skool electro with analog generated percussions and field recordings. While touching GQOM-esque and post-grime atmospheres and both pushing BPM-speed limits forwards, 'Spherae' explores further into experimental-territories yet remaining true to its club nature.
