Balamii resident and Sticky Tapes-founder Theo Everyday arrives with a huge debut on Cheeky Sneakers, seamlessly blending the worlds of jungle, electro and trance with his signature sauce of nostalgic and futuristic hyper-funk.

Having curated the Sticky Tapes mix series and label – supporting music from artists such as Stones Taro, Om Unit, Jossy Mitsu and Lobster Theremin label head Asquith – the DJ and producer knows a thing or two about merging differing styles and energies. The Holsten FM EP plays out like a three hour club set; placing classic UK sounds at its foundation and throwing multi-coloured paint all over them.

‘The Way You Feel’ makes use of the pitched-vocal, SoundCloud hyper-pop aesthetic with hardcore-piano stabs and heartstring-tugging cheese wrapped within a huge low-end swinging bassline. A great lights-up tool to leave them with a smile on their face. The classic rave energy is maintained on the EP title track - a stripped-back cut of ragga jungle-step that’s as meditative as it is devastating.

From golden-era rave and jungle future-mutations to heads-down club sounds, ‘Every Body_s Talking (well let_s talk) is a strobe-light power sequence for when things are in full swing, before 90s breakbeat and trance join forces on a ‘Six and Two Threes’ hands-in-the-air moments.

Breaks-littered dream sequences that feel like a warm hug follow on ‘Summer Lie In’ – its chopped melodies and stirring atmospherics causing ripples within the pond of paradise – before ‘Mod Cons’ closes with a squelching cut of acid-electro on a killer digi-only exclusive.
