SINGLE OF THE WEEK
It’s hard to keep up with Denham Audio right now. The last few years have seen a salvo of killer 12”s splaying across labels like Sneaker Social Club, Frendzone! and WNCL’s Library Tool Kit, while frequent sparring with Borai helped launch the Club Glow series as well as essential drops on Higher Level and E-Beamz. It’s a buoyant time for hypercharged rave music, which seems ironic given the dearth of raves across the globe, but right now there’s a great catharsis in listening to peak time rushers and imagining a crowd losing their collective minds.
