Five new tracks from one of the US underground’s most exciting voices, Heavy Eyes finds Sobolik refining their sound while reconnecting with their roots. Written over eight months between June 2024 and February 2025, the record came out of a moment of recalibration. After a run of dense, chaotic releases, Sobolik stripped things back and turned their focus to groove and percussion, gravitating towards techno, tribal house and dubstep for inspiration – but never long enough for any one genre to define them.

The result is a set of tracks that balance dissonance and playfulness, with a renewed emotional core. “I wanted to hone things down,” they explain. “None of them are straightforward bangers, but they’re all playful, charged, and connected to the deep reverence for pop music that’s always driven me.”

Musically, the EP takes influence from Trekkie Trax, 85 Acid and Yaleesa Hall, late-‘00s dubstep pioneers like Appleblim and Peverelist, and the DJ worldbuilding of CCL, Gigsta, Objekt, and Kiernan Laveaux. But at its heart, it’s rooted in Sobolik’s most formative experiences in the North American underground, channeling the unbridled spirit of DIY raves like Montreal’s Layer05 and STM, Philadelphia’s Chrysalis and Concréte, New York’s Groovy Groovy and TOSSD, and of course Sobolik’s own Antidote nights. “This music is for those floors,” they say. “The places that captured my heart.”

As their seventh EP, Heavy Eyes feels like a sure step forward. “It comes from me DJing more, deepening my knowledge of how dance music works on the body and on a crowd,” Sobolik reflects. “I feel more confident now, put less pressure on myself – and I think the tracks are cleaner, more distilled.” That maturity doesn’t come at the expense of personality, though: this is still music full of texture, humour, and an air of “why the fuck not?”

The EP closes with a remix from Swedish innovator Peder Mannerfelt – ‘business (techno) in the front, party in the back’ personified and one of Sobolik’s earliest inspirations. “He’s been flying the flag for freaky, fun, bassy techno for years,” Sobolik says. “His tracks set my gold standard for dancefloor music – I did not expect he’d be so immediately down to remix my material, and I’m really humbled by his support.”

With Heavy Eyes, Sobolik delivers their sharpest and most focused work yet: club tracks that are fierce and frenetic, but also deeply earnest.

BOOTY / GHETTOTECH / JUKE MIX 2025 - CHERRIEP 00

"Ode to your Mum doing the washing, I literally listened to the first song by Joshua Ideden and thought I have to do something with this! 
This is a mix to say F*k the -isms and -archys. F*k the rules of mixing, f*k the genre purist. I think they discourage experimentation, creativity and innovation, which doesn't add to the underground, it rather stalls progression. 
Basically this mix is a good representation of the kaupapa I apply to my selections, for me it's about the artists I’m playing, who deserve to have their productions played and celebrated. It's genreless. It has a lot of good basslines and drums. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoy."
