RELEASE NOTES
Hot on his heels after a contribution to Deep Club’s debut 12" from last year, one of the crew’s most experienced resident deejays, Occidental, returns for the label’s second release and his first ever solo EP. Pariah Dreams aims squarely at the dancefloor with two all-killer, no-filler 45 RPM cuts. “Let’s Play” on side A is a 9-minute acid house bomb drenched in sweat and other bodily fluids. Porno excerpts ebb and flow throughout the track along with the dynamic hi-hats and bloopy synth theme for just the right amount for foreplay. Sparse acid squelches infiltrate the mix and drive it straight toward dancefloor climax.
“I Have Always” on the flip is the perfect complement to the scorcher on side A, and it still slams at the club. But this club is straight out of a seedy thriller film that is packed with all kinds of freaks. Two words: deep bass. It’s not every bar, but when the descending bassline falls through the texture, it hits with force. Wrap that up with a slew of intricate textures Occidental has crafted — subtle keys, ghastly sounds that eerily appear and vanish, and signature non-linear hi-hats, this tune remains tied to the dancefloor.
