This EP is so perfect! Techy, progressive, trancey, melodic, minimalistic and groovey.

DingleAnother fantastic record from my favorite Australian composer. Congratulations to all involved.
Ein Kleiner SchelmWhat a beautiful set of tracks, some sounds remind me of the first Alter Ego album, which is one of my all time favourites. This goes into my August chart!
DJ Hi-ShockRetina Glimmer is awesome kinda atmospheric track. love the synths and pads used here. it is pretty yet would be so awesome to hear in a big room
Ariel CybanaA wicked release. Melodic, powerfull techno. Hypochondriac Wasp is the one for me
Material ObjectSteve Law does it for me – yet again. When am I ever going to get used to the flexibility and creative talents of this guy? ‘Retina Glimmer’ starts off deceptively chilled and floral in sentiment; but ‘Hypochondriac Wasp’ introduces and organic, liquid-electro take on minimal Detroit, and ‘Shon Spagnolia’ would be at home on any quality Basic Channel release. Beautiful, challenging, and quite often hypnotic.
Andrez Bergen aka Little NobodyRetina Glimmer takes me back to 98, has an old school Sasha & Digweed feel to it. Great work, will slam this for sure.
