“More sneaky, shimmery and vaguely sinister sounds from a rapidly rising producer”
Mickey Darius - Broken Clover Records / the Tourist
“Just lush deep Detroit influenced techno. This knocks”
Guillermo - Sweater Funk, SF
“John Friend, under the Trip Show alias, has provided the beginning and/or end of an ear-catching DJ set, depending on your preferred delivery method. Fit for bass-bin crispness or earpod glory, "The Darien Gap" whips up dub frequencies with ambient climates, presenting a house-inspired big room mood.”
“Solid classic-sounding Detroit-meets-West Coast deep hypnotic techno feels - like a Fragile cut cruising along smoothly at -7% on the decks, or Sean Deason revealing an unreleased Landau journey from the vaults slated for his Matrix imprint circa 97, and we’re just getting treated to it now”
Dave Aju / Elbow Grease
