The Cult welcomes on board Scottish techno producer Colin Wright, who has built the profile of his own label Wirelab Records over the last eight years while simultaneously releasing exceptional music under his CJW moniker. Here he joins the fold for a solid release of deep and sonically adventurous house music that showcases his production mastery and his deft touch for conjuring emotive melodies.

‘Damage Limitation’ kicks off proceedings with a chugging groove that sees filtered strings gradually weave into the track before lush stabs take the track to a crescendo. ‘Remote’ turns up the BPMs and introduces a motor city bassline to revolve that track around. Halfway through, the track breaks into gorgeous sustained chords, building to a peak before diving back into the depths. ‘Sunbeats’, as the name suggests, breezes along with shimmering stabs and fizzing deep house chords that keep on rising. Finally, ‘Bleeding’ rides on a deliciously dark bassline before string stabs elevate the track into the stratosphere.

Overall, an effortless foray into deep techno and house from the Scottish producer, with emotion underpinning each track. Primed for the dancefloor but full of detailed sound design, this is an EP to light up deeper discothèques.
