New Orbits EP

The eleventh release on ROMB is a wild yet beautiful mini compilation, combining Detroit and Chicago vibes with UK breakbeats and a dash of melancholic electronica: a generous EP with DJ friendly tracks that will also work perfectly at home. The A-side starts off with a Detroit flavored acid house groover by new artist Almost Automatic, followed by Solarity, a stormy, break-ridden dance stepper with an epic feel. On the flipside Sean Dixon, well-known from releases on Clone and Rawax as well as his own Final Chapter imprint, delivers a clean-cut Italo infused Chicago house gem. The EP ends with a beautiful, melodic down-tempo synth journey by Daniel Savio. All in all a diverse and playful EP with old-school vibes, yet with fresh twists and turns. Limited to 200 copies only, this is a gem not to be missed.
