AADJA – Thought Dealer

AADJA’s debut EP on Trip is brisk, trippy and unusual techno, exactly the kind label head Nina Kraviz specialises in. AADJA flows through a range of moods on Thought Dealer, letting alien vocal grabs, siren stabs or acid squelch bass guide the pounding beats through dark and light. ‘Hypomania’ and ‘Thought Dealer’ are groovy, hypno techno to entrance a warmed up dance floor. The other cuts will get you to that place, offering distinctive takes on powerful, inventively produced body music. ‘Zappa Valley’ adds elements of psytrance to the techno framework, giving this multifaceted EP yet another edge.
