Abacus & HAF

''Toronto’s deep house torchbearers Abacus & HAF S return with the highly anticipated fifth release on ReThink, Analogue Stories Vol. 4 — a 4-track EP bursting with analog warmth, gritty groove, and unrelenting soul.

Opening the collection is “In Between The Lines,” a hypnotic journey driven by chugging drums, bouncy keys, and lush string flourishes that echo the spirit of Detroit’s golden era. This sets the tone perfectly for “In My Life,” where stabbing chords and haunting vocal loops summon peak-time energy and emotion — built for the deepest corners of the dancefloor.

Flipping over, “My Love Is” is a heartfelt groove that leaves no doubt: HAF S’s love for the craft runs deep. The record closes with “Availability,” a late-night mind-bender from HAF S that pulses and weaves through cosmic textures and dubby atmospheres — sealing this EP as one for the heads and the floor alike.

ReThink continues to push forward-thinking sonics rooted in soul, and Analogue Stories Vol. 4 is another essential chapter. DJs, dancers, and deep diggers — take note.''
