about

Bay area multi-modal artist Station Point (Chakharta, JDN) is known for creating rugged but precise dub-laden melodies. A maestro of complex rhythmic pattern builds, Station Point returns to the label to deliver a well-rounded two-tracker with hints of psychedelic flare and urban tones. Joining the project is HD label boss PointBender and prolific pad inventor Patchen with two unique variations on the supremely delightful originals.

Our project begins with Babombicz, a syncopated joyride saddled by pitchy arps and cacophonous drum fills. The track evolves, diving deeper into melodic interplays driven by bells that culminate into a trance-like state. Patchen reimagines the colorful playground of Babombicz with his signature swung drum components, briefly interrupted by glitchy sound design moments. Patchen quickly moves into a forward-leaning acid melody that delivers increased movement and ramps up the energy. Alcyone Chorus shifts us into a more laid-back reprise, with expertly-crafted reversed swells and tension-building pad construction. The beautiful melodic moments are tempered perfectly with the emerging acid lead and live drum accents. A late-arriving sub bass ensures that you will truly feel this one on the dancefloor. PointBender reengineers Alcyone Chorus as a messy but lush electro remix with homages to early Random Factor/Carl Finlow releases. The syncopation of the electro patterns with the layered pad abstractions adds an element of euphoria, a great remix to get lost inside. With more on the roadmap from Station Point, we are excited to introduce you to the maneuvering styles of this conscious creator.
