If "Trax From The Back Of The Sofa" was intended to be an unleashing of the sounds of a Strange Riddims party, Vol II is a parable of the 24 hours from the doors opening, dismantling the dancefloor, and a convoy of taxis to some unfortunate volunteer's house. 

Hewn from the quarry of dubs, edits, bootlegs and originals behind the Strange doors, TFTBOTSVOL2 erratically flits between bombastic club material and candid artefacts of the after-hours sessions over the past 4 years. The compilation expands on its prequel not only in volume and breadth of sound, but also in its pervasion of the personality and atmosphere of the Strange Riddims extended family. 

Special thanks as always to all Strange ravers, the straight thru crew, and anybody outside of Manchester who has shown love, bought a track or two or turned somebody on to what we're doing. Don't be a stranger. 

With Love, 
SR X

Truly audacious, Hot Glue Gun embodies Strange Riddims' commitment to Ableton alchemy. The compilation embodies the idea of being "more than the sum of its parts", connecting the dots between nostalgic 00's pop, cult classics and contemporary club music. Distilling our collective tastes into a recontextualised sound that is distinctly Strange, each track encapsulates the euphoric moments of the decks aligning, elevating the room into a frenzy of sing-alongs and bewildered grins.

On paper, a lot of this compilation shouldn't make sense, but the unlikely pairings have been road-tested internationally by friends and family to great avail.

Please ensure you are wearing the correct safety equipment before handling the Hot Glue Gun.

As an acknowledgement of the ongoing struggle of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups, we have decided to donate all proceeds from Hot Glue Gun Vol.1 via Bandcamp to Stop Hate UK & The Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust.

Black and Queer music and culture informs the vast majority of what we as a collective play and make. Whilst the systematic oppression of Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups and the LGBT+ community maintains, we want to contribute towards tackling these injustices and helping those affected by them.

We encourage our friends and followers in a similar position to do the same or to donate to other worthwhile causes at this time.
