TOXE — Blinks
Format: 12"/Digital
Cat.No: PAN 88
Release Date: 22 June 2018
Purchase: https://toxe.bandcamp.com/album/blinks

Swedish producer Toxe's sharp ascent through club-cursed climes has elicited the highest praise from the start. In just a few years she has linked up with Staycore and Halcyon Veil, presented an A/V project 
with The Vinyl Factory, and scored KENZO's FW 2016 prints presentation with close collaborator Mechatok. Her new EP 'Blinks' is a fractal bloom of candied melodies and minor laments set in a sweep of frenetic rhythmic scenes. 

Developed throughout last year, 'Blinks' journals a period of inward flux. And though this is never presented in an overtly self-conscious way on the EP, Toxe binds a sweet juvenilia with a bustling and eager pensive tone to outline her tessellating sense of self just below the surface. 

Meditative glimpses of soaring synthetic landscapes are woven across 'Blinks' in brief snatches. Awash in horrific and gripping fluorescent hues, these environments are augmented by a comically mischievous 
patchwork of voices and saccharine rasps that clamour for attention, hinting at Toxe's impulse to voice a simultaneous and unorganised set of experiences. 

The release is mastered by Jeremy Cox, featuring art by Jasper Spicero.

Ben as a talented pianist and Tobi as a moderately talented flute player, both like House quite well. This is reflected in the constantly growing record collection of the two (to the sorrow of their growing back pains and wallets).
Especially some minimalistic house from Eastern Europe with spherical dub elements and groovy bass lines is in their favorite selection. This cannot only be heard in their sets, but also in their productions.

Ben als talentierter Pianist und Tobi als mäßig begabter Blockflötenspieler, finden beide House ganz gut. Dies spiegelt sich auch in der stetig wachsenden Plattensammlung der beiden wieder (zum Leid der Bandscheiben und des Geldbeutels).
Besonders der minimalistische House aus Osteuropa mit sphärischen Dub-Elementen und groovigen Basslines hat es ihnen angetan, was sich in den Produktionen und Sets zeigt.
