TX Connect Trixxter EP

Not since Edward III rolled out his cannons on the French battlefield during the 100 Years War have we seen such shock & awe response to fresh, terrifying and complete WEAPONRY. Many of you will already know the name of TX Connect from his previous sides on DABJ, not to mention cuts on L.I.E.S (w/ Willie Burns), Bad Mums and Adelaide Soundworks. The three tracks present here for his first bonafide DABJ solo outing are no-nonsense jack trax strictly for the vagabonds, rogues, sages and full-on midnight wizards. If you were to drop this fizzing slice of wax into a two-litre bottle of coke, it would level your whole fucking town. A glistening acidic blowout like the 12"'s opening track "Trixxter" sounds like audial equivalent of Burning Man remade by the Chapman Brother's in miniature model-format: you really need to listen to it to get that, but trust us. A2, and we journey into the "Intramountains", a synthetic Jazz-Rave odyssey with perilous peaks and cliff-edge stabs: touching the void doesn't even cut it, m8. The EP's closer, "Xanadu" could be a lost soundtrack outtake to Jodorowsky's Xanadu, if such a thing even existed. It's the kind of futuro-acid fantasy epic that fits perfectly as the roll-out cut to finish off this utterly stellar audio twelve inch stereo vinyl record from Dixon Avenue Basement Jams Records Inc. GmbH & Co Kg. TX Connect's mastery of the acidic form is complimented nicely by his signature angular melodies, and this so far is him at the apex of his powerres! This release comes with the third instalment of Dan Axons unique artwork prints which look back at images and spaces relevant to the history of Dixon Avenue Basement Jams. This one is titled "G3 8BW', which was the postal code of our beloved Soundhaus in Glasgow, were we did most of our parties going back to 2000... Sadly it was demolished this week.
