After a more than well-received first release, Interstate Records is back with a shimmering and diverse EP. Featuring two original cuts by the label heads Dial Tone on the A-Side, plus two outstanding remixes on the flipside, the record serves as a fitting successor to the label´s thriving start.

On ‘Lucid’, the title track, Dial Tone show their distinctive skill to create an ongoing trip and let the listener immerse in its energetic melancholia. ‘Cypher’ kicks off on a slightly deeper note, however, only until a dazzling synthesizer line drills itself through the drums. 

The B-Side contains two remixes of ‘Cypher’. Cadency (also known as Héctor Oaks) transforms the track into a fully equipped dance floor bomb. The chopped up, reverberated synth and the somewhat weirdly shivering percussions make the track stand out as a perfect example of Cadency’s signature sound. 

The final track of the record is a dreamy cut by Figure affiliate Viers. After slightly more functional releases on Len Faki’s label, the man from Leeds shows his spherical and cinematic side - nailed it!

For our third release, we are happy to welcome Dold. Throughout releases on Polegroup, MindTrip and his very own imprint Arsenik, the Swedish producer has shaped a distinctive sound - raw, minimalistic yet warm and energetic. For INS003 he delivers two tracks. While the title track, "Version", demonstrates Dold's darker side, "Rise And Fall" bears a more hopeful tone. Although the vibes are different, both tracks are driven by the same raw 909 - infused drums that have made Dold one of the hottest Swedish talents in the first place.

As in previous releases, the two originals are accompanied by two remixes on the B-side. The first one comes from Virgo and Soma Records protegé SLV. While focusing on the synth of the title track, smacking percussions and dark tribal sounds add a more punchy and energetic vibe to the original. Klockworks affiliate Newa, however, laid eyes on the pads and strings. Through carrying "Version" into slightly more playful and spheric worlds the Georgian delivers an ideal closing to this records.
