Strict Face returns with four rhythmically charged dancefloor clatterers.
Strict Face has undoubtedly been one of the most exciting names to emerge from the club music scene over the last decade. Championed by labels such as NLV, Local Action, Gobstopper and Different Circles, the Australian producer has built up an impressive back catalogue of releases over the years that have pushed genre boundaries in every direction possible, as well as providing a relentless stream of heat for DJ USB sticks worldwide.
On the highly-anticipated ‘Thirst For Nerve’ EP, the no-frills ‘Sin Drum’ kicks things off with a relentless assault of syncopated drums, leading into the delirious headrush of ‘Instant Swelter’ which melts breakbeats and vocal slices into a sweat-serving portion of rave Ritalin. ‘Poison Finish’ pushes the low end to ludicrous levels before we finish with the thick soundscapes of ‘Casual Contact’ - washing the frenzy of the release in waves of psychedelic notes.
Every release from Strict Face has brought something new to the table - with this EP, released through his very own collective SLG International, the accomplished producer conjures up four brain bending tracks guaranteed to cause maximum club carnage. This certainly isn’t one to miss.
