Infinite Machine made a statement with their final release of 2021. A celebration of them reaching 10 years in the game, the label are now looking ahead to another packed year continuing their exploration of the weird corners of contemporary dance music.

Following a label return from Soft As Snow last month, Infinite Machine welcome Greek-born producer Aroent to the family for a four-track EP, made up of three originals and a rework from Deaf Test boss Ploy. You can hear the different influences that inform his approach - touches of IDM, UK techno, bass and experimental funnel into the dense, layered compositions, which are full of heavy drum programming, crisp percussion and plenty of swing.
