following some new gems on the great waxtefacts imprint, strip steve delivers a beautifully crafted cosmic ep as the second release on berlin based label man band. with sounds ranging from ambient to raw, galactic workouts, this 5 tracker is a must have for listening just as much as dancing. ‘deep within the distant galaxy, a spaceship cruised under the glow of exotic stars. it’s metallic frame glimmered beneath the shimmering light as it surged forwards through time and space. it was embarking upon a spectacularly perilous odyssey, a journey into the abyss. its passengers sat eagerly watching their planet vanish out of sight through bubble windows. they made jokes amongst one another, cracking a smile as appropriate, but they were scared. - words by the ransom note, inspired by the track odyssey. vital sales points: played by alex from tokyo at rex club, paris and cocktail d amore, berlin. track odyssey premiered by the ransom note
