It’s fair to say that Sammy Gossens aka Sierra Sam is one of the rare and victorious butterflies of the electronic world. Over the last 15 years not only has Sierra Sam released his own works on esteemed imprints such as Supplement Facts, Time Has Changed, Einmaleins Musik and many more, but his impeccable engineering skills are in demand worldwide, co-producing with artists such as Bloody Mary for Dame Music and Surburban Knight for UR and Peacefrog. Not enough to suffice his creative torrent, Sierra Sam runs the highly successful Toys For Boys imprint alongside Marcus Vector and was label manager for Jay Haze’s Tuning Spork and Contexterrior labels. Joining Cesare vs Disorder’s Serialism imprint comes as no great surprise; the labels quirky, throbbing yet quality mannerism slotting directly into Sierra Sam’s honed tech house signature for this five piece EP ‘Sierralism’. A1 ‘Sierralism’ marks the EP with an acidic and animalistic drive as sirens scream and tight percussion smack against a dark push and pull bass line. ’Sierralism’ is deceiving though, as its second half swerves into creepy vocoded slurs and an enchanting key melody to mould the title track into a mixed bag of flitting atmospheres. Up next is ‘Your Secrets’ where Sierra Sam exercises his unrivalled ability to conquer a plethora of sounds. Dripping in sumptuous synth lines, whispering piano keys and a wailing male vocal, Sierra’s concoction of off- beat clicks and cuts work as the underlying drive to ‘Your Secrets’ - a sensual, elegant and late night house track. On the flip long term friend and colleague Jay Haze works his ardent craftsmanship on ‘Your Secrets’ with his ‘Never Ready Edit’. Injecting punch via powerful drum snares and ricocheting vocal snippets, Haze flips ‘Your Secrets’ into its dark, smouldering alter ego with a stomping funk to its beat. Following Haze, Sierra Sam welcomes another artist on ‘The Laws Of Distraction’, Brooklyn’s Big Bully.
