Hitting release number three, Slush Records remasters and reissues Spacer IV aka James Zeiter's sought-after 1997 EP on Pleasure Records. The man behind a slew of lauded records under a variety of different aliases, his sound is one that is cherished for orbiting the spheres of progressive trance and atmospheric dub techno. This four-track EP, however, saw James venture into unchartered territory, exploring a more melodic, house-tinted spectrum, before flipping back into the progressive techno-trance underbelly.Having started life in 1995, Spacer IV had already gone from the leagues of limited white labels, to being the name stamped on one of Pleasure's biggest-selling records by the time this EP came out. With only 195 white labels of his first record ARC 1/ARC 2 pressed, a copy was passed to Pete Robinson at Robs Records. 'ARC 2' was plucked from that release, supplemented with a new cut 'ARC 3' and given a proper pressing on Robs Records offshoot label Pleasure to notable success.Fast forward to 1997 and James chose to depart the trance-infused techno sound of those first releases. Absorbing elements by osmosis, this EP sees James dipping his toes into fresh waters. Using what limited hardware he had available, including an Akai S950 sampler, Ensoniq ESQ-1 and Novation Bass Station 1, James laid down four distinctive and versatile club cuts. 'Sirocco' opens the EP, a tingling hit of endorphins that only the most timeless of tracks can elicit. Echoing pads feed acid murmurings, that sit atop dusty breakbeats and rattling sub-bass. An aural exploration, that is equal parts ethereal and empowering, taking cues from breaks, ambient, chill out and house. It's one of those rare tracks that has the power to float you away or fuel your buzz, giving a healthy tug on the heartstrings in the process.'Mono' follows, merging heads-down dancefloors with the embrace of warmer climates. It's deep and Detroit-infused yet bolstered by a dream house bassline straight out of the Italian Riviera. A dose of eyes-closed euphoria that hits just right.The flipside sees James in more familiar territory with 'Jetson' and 'Dust'. The former is a hit of space-age progressive house. Trippy, hypnotizing, driving goodness, showcasing James' ability to lock your body into a groove, yet send your mind to another world. The latter rounds out the EP, serving up an acid-swirling club stomper, forever building in intensity before dropping you into the vacuum of deep space.Tracklisting:A1. SiroccoA2. MonoB1. JetsonB2.
