In the past few years Paramida has been busy aligning the planets to her liking: notching up residencies at Panorama Bar, Robert Johnson and Rinse FM. Now she sets her sights on something new: the moon. Her first 12” is here, and in it she channels its energy into 2 unexpected, long-awaited cuts: ‘Dream Ritual’ and ‘French House 2000’, releasing them on her own Love On The Rocks imprint and offering a glimpse of things to come with remixes from Youandewan and the mysterious Alchemical Sisters – AKA Octo Octa & Eris Drew. The eagle has landed, and she is energy.

‘Dream Ritual’ begins firing on all cylinders with heavy percussion and deep rolling basslines that recall early 90s house & jungle, leading to a frenetic, hi hat-heavy drum workout and the drop of a hypnotising lead, carrying us through sections of dreamy pads, swirling trippy clouds that build to breaking point then clear to reveal the raw breaks behind; a stormy sunrise over an extended rave on the shores of a tropical planet, made of ecstasy.

Eris Drew & Octo Octa’s sublime rework stretches the pads and otherworldly samples over a thumping, jump-up take on affairs: stop/start workouts between pressurised build ups, slamming percussion fills and a cheeky acid bassline, all twisting, turning and bubbling away to effervescent effect.

French House 2000 begins in more tribal territory, and with even more urgency. Pounding drums at 130bpm are laced with razor sharp hi hats and punctuated by rushes of dreamy distant melodies, synth stabs and nods to mid-90s French and UK house, techno and trance, a particular blend of genres synonymous with Paramida’s DJ output which she looks set to fuse ingeniously in her production.

Youandewan steps up for the remix, dialling down the intensity for a more reflective, more sci-fi take: a latenight spacewalk through a cluster of eerie sonic debris, moving at brisk pace with a stoned energy past trance-tinged horizons, pausing occasionally to take in the view.

The past is over. A new cycle begins. Dream Ritual will be released on 12” vinyl in a divine ceremony on the night of the full moon, October 20th, 2021.
