Destronauts – Endangered Species EP

It’s all about Brooklyn today with both label and producer being based in that fine part of the world. Admittedly I’m a bit late to the party when it comes to Honeywax Records and Destronauts so I’ve got a bit of catching up to do.

This EP stood high above the average in an inbox that constantly gets flooded and it’s an EP I kept going back to again and again.

The three tracks contained within all sit roughly within a techno framework but without being constrained by it. “Sentient Beings” kicks us off with its murky atmospherics and a kick n hat backing that never forces itself to the forefront.

The absolutely brilliant title track follows with its short n snappy acid line, pitched down vocal hook and mechanical percussion before proceedings come to a close with the airy dubbier sound of “Exit Strategy”

It’s a hugely impressive outing and there’s also an instrumental of the original included for those with that inclanation (myself included).

Released on June 11th and available at Juno.
