@sandboardsnz: what a pleasure cruise, Eden. Thanks mate!

The Psycho Weazel duo met when compiling playlists at summer camp as teenagers. They decided to work together and have never looked back since. The Swiss pair have released on the likes of Correspondant, Sol Eterno and various other labels and now land on Argent Sale. They use production techniques popular in the 80s such as glossy arpeggios, cowbells and snare rolls while re-claiming earworm melodies from the era all served up with a fresh and polished sound. These new tracks are a bit like both sides of the same coin and include influences that shaped the duo’s sound, namely indie dance, Italo, disco, cold wave and EBM.

Opener 'Disco Moon' immediately sets off on a strident retro disco groove with plenty of shiny arps and crunchy drum tumbles. The fantastic 'Polarized' is a more slow and steamy cut with breathy female vocals and a rugged bassline overlaid with off-grid percussion. 'Elettra' is then an exquisite eight-minute adventure to the stars on tinny drums and crashing perc while a rigid lead synth brings the colour as it sprays about the mix. Sandford features on 'Gomina' which is another dramatic and loose-limbed disco cut, this time with lashings of Italo melody and theatric drum work. The radio edit of this will be release on 6th may, while the extended mix features on the full EP and gives even more of a thrilling dance floor workout doused in disco dazzle.

'Chrome' opens with big throwback drum fills and the wiggling bass and catchy grooves sweep you off your feet while the withering sci-fi keys and cowbells all add detail to this lush groove. The magnificent 'Lola' closes down with a fat bassline and widescreen disco sound that is packed with a charming personality.

These six tracks sound like the future of hedonist club music, 2022 style.

Eleven unique tracks from eleven distinct and talented artists, '@GLBDOM Therapy 2' is an odyssey of sounds sharing one sublime compilation. Bonded by a common theme, that of a deep and at times soulful persuasion, every tune on the VA manages to deliver something different. Pumping house sounds reminiscent of the 90s seamlessly blend with deeper renditions echoing a style more closely associated with the early to mid-2000s. Driving 4/4 beats play happily alongside cleverly programmed synth riffs, dreamy pads, meandering strings, and a wealth of skilfully applied vocal lines. A vintage and retro tinged vibe permeates the entire collection while deftly avoiding cliches, every artist bringing their distinctive and modern approach to the art of creating modern house music. 'GLBDOM Therapy 2' is an absolute must have for any dedicated house music DJ or connoisseur, and a shining example of what an astutely curated house music VA compilation should sound like.
