Nick Theos is back on Sketchbook and we couldn't be happier. This Toronto based producer has been a staple on the Rawthentic label for quite sometime now, and we are always excited by his work.

For his second installment with us Mr. Theos presents his Space Time EP.
The title track is a beat and bass heavy groove with some twists and turns in the percussion followed by deep and thoughtful sound design that inspires introverted beauty, and sets the tone for some serious dancefloor magic.

The second track Mechanical Elves, takes his ideas even farther and deeper, into a melancholic abyss of beauty and intelligence. A different kind of track for our label, and we couldn't be happier to showcase it and share it!!!

As always we include our beat and synth tools to accompany each track.

This is a great release, enjoy the music, and let your self go as we present Nick Theos's Space Time EP.

Thanks for your time and we hope you enjoy the music! Chart consideration is always appreciated!

Peace and love from LA.
Android Cartel

SKETCH016 - Nick Theos - Space Time [EP Mix Preview]

West Coast techno artist Highsage brings the raw and dark gear-driven Detroit techno sound on the latest single from Sketchbook.

NRGiZER is an energetic, pumping dance floor techno monster accompanied by its various tools to make this an incredibly versatile package for all hours of the night.

On the flip, Red Fire is a simmering acid affair that ratchets up the dance floor tension by a factor of ten. The tools are also included to make this EP an essential Autumn release.

Highsage - NRGiZER / Red Fire

SUPPORT FROM :: SLAM, Brothers' Vibe, Noah Pred, Stryke, Silicone Soul, DVS1, Chris Fortier, Paco Osuna, Pole Folder, Lance Blaise, Anderson Noise & more!

"Souls" is a subtle creeper with dense percussion and micro accents to draw in the dance floor tension. The track is also broken down into two handy tools - one featuring the spaced-out, echo drenched vocals and the other the groove engine room.

"Gods" checks in on the deeper, dub techno tip with a loping bass line and well-manicured effects. There is also a great companion tool isolating the ARP and vocals of the original
