LEISUREPLEX EP (SPRAY002)

REMIXES

OUT ON 09.09.22

Preorder: https://music.sprayforever.com/drua-leisureplex

Tracklist:
A1. Leisureplex
A2. Leisureplex (Mor Elian Remix)
B1. LARP

Sound the alarms, red-hot new label Spray has checked in for round two; nummer zwei.. though far from dry; with Leisureplex, a suspiciously proficient debut from Dublin’s Drua. Joining the prog-parade full steam ahead, the 3 tracker dabbles in tech trance activity with a bonus remix from Berlin’s backbone Mor Elian. The enigmatic newcomer showcasing mature structural bliss, crafted for moments of subconscious synchronicity between the dj and their dancers.

Breaking out of the cookie cutter mold in sharp fashion is the title track, rolling effortlessly with addictive bell delays and morish gating. Layers graciously build a wall of sound that can’t be broken down; splintered shakers flicker above board whilst demonic vocal blurs act as rhythmic counterparts. Mor Elian’s dystopian leaning rendition still holds some stealthily euphoric aura, the heavy handed machine drum freakout a brain scattering rendering on speed.

The B Side stands alone tall and proud; Larp feels like a climax at the party. Sirens flaring high as hell, the rise and fall of the bassline bouncing in tandem with driving drums, only stopping for a dramatic drumroll. An essential to top off a seriously stunning first record from Drua, get it before he blows up!

Discoteca enters the world. Created by dj & producer Cristofeu, this new sonic sanctuary takes you into its cathartic parallel universe where new era trance, trip-hop and drum’n’bass progressive sensations will guide you towards a sexy and boundaryless trip. To lead the way, an ambitious Cristofeu 4 tracker dance mania. A distorted fat kick rolling d’n’b late night tool followed by an Ibiza bikini prog groover; each infused with a high energy oxygen wave, solid percussive breakthrough and psychoactive liquid synths from finest wizards IN2STELLAR & Drua for an extra sweaty climate, ethics of Discoteca.

PREMIERE: Cristofeu - Acapulco (Drua Remix)

A long time coming, but definitely worth the wait.

We are delighted to include Dublin's friendliest Topshop icon @druaaa in our list of mix contributors. Known and unknown in the city for his many aliases, Drua has been doing his thing for a few years now, with his debut EP from 2022 still featuring constantly in our sets. Over the blissful hour, Drua takes us through his distinct sound, touching on elements of classic prog, rolling trance, and eurohouse, as well as some unreleased tracks thrown in for good measure.

"Recorded this back in January, with the intention of making something fun, fast and driving. Please enjoy :))"

Following the development of the project to a solo venture of co-founder James Priestley, Secretsundaze marks another key milestone in 2024 with the release of the first original material by the artist under the Secretsundaze moniker in over 4 years.

Coming out on Berlin institution WARNING, the  WAR1210 EP exhibits the sonic development of Secretsundaze as a producer and DJ. Progressive in outlook, organic in nature, the two tracks (accompanied by remixes from Drua &  Giraffi Dog) help copper fasten the overall landscape for Secretsundaze’s artist vision.

The EP opens with ‘Doesn’t This Sun Feel Great..’, a rising, percussive track that utilises disparate samples and twisted vocal manipulation for a fast paced, dancefloor orientated roller. Progressive in outlook, organic in nature, the track steadily builds throughout, culminating in a deserving, euphoric release. ‘The Real Sun’ takes the sensibilities of the opening track and leans on its raw, rolling percussive energy, keeping things highly functional and grooving.

The B side commences with Drua’s version of ‘Doesn’t This Sun Feel Great’. Drawing for a sonic palette quickly becoming synonymous with him, the remix twists and turns in a mesh of psychedelic progressive and hard hitting tech house. To wrap up proceedings Giraffi Dog delivers his captivating ‘700 Lakeside remix’ of ‘The Real Sun’, pushing boundaries with an inventive score that transforms the original track's energy.

Secretsundaze - WAR1210 will be out on vinyl and digital on the 14th of November 2024
