[Million Dollar Disco]

After the triumph of last year’s Stranger Danger EP, we present its follow-up collaboration: another 3-track release where we had complete freedom over the design and music. Just like before, the only condition was to veer into leftfield territory. You’ll find a pair of dubbed-out remixes of classic disco tunes, with a touch of depth to conclude.

The test pressings, which surfaced and promptly vanished a few weeks back, garnered a positive response, so we’re confident you’ll be pleased with your purchase. No digital release on the horizon for this one.
