Perc returns to Perc Trax for his first full EP since the release of
his Resident Advisor recommended album 'The Cut Off' in
March 2024. Across the three tracks of 'Soft Launch' Perc sets
out his current sound, a groove led take on classic techno with
the depth of production and unexpected twists that Perc's tracks
are famous for.
Title track 'Soft Launch' is based around the interplay between
the three main elements of the track, the driving kick & bass, cut
up percussion loops and the ever building string chords,
creating something unique that has been a key track in Perc's
sets since it was completed.
'Tonight' sits somewhere between pulsing electro and gritty lo-fi
techno, constantly pushing forward as a female vocal breaks
through the wall of percussion demanding to hear something
fresh.
Finally 'Gravity Drop' pushes the sound design further, mixing a
crisp industrial kick drum groove with cut up atmospheric
melodic and vocal elements creating a psychedelic dreamlike
atmosphere to close the EP.
Packaged in a full colour sleeve designed by Perc Trax design
god Jonny Costello, Perc's Soft Launch is a statement of Perc
Trax's future both sonically and visually.
