Lag & X-Coast presents XL Traxx
Lag & X-Coast announce a collaborative project named XL Traxx on Rekids this month.
Lag is a DJ/producer who has previously released on MORD, THEM, Elements, and Don't since his first 12" in 2013. X-Coast has released on Steel City Dance Discs, Unknown To The Unknown, and his own Riviera Records following his smash debut with the 90s-tinged "Mango Bay" in 2016. Teaming up for the first time, the Serbian duo unleash their new project XL Traxx with a fierce three-track EP on Radio Slave's Rekids.
We met around 1996, trading secret codes for Mortal Kombat. In high school, we traded CDs with DAWs and mixes. We bought records at the same DJ store... These tracks were made in only a couple of sessions as we wanted to keep the raw energy intact. Expect a funky, energetic, overdriven, loopy sound: techno with a soul from Novi Sad, Serbia. This is not a release - it's a love story.

Leading the release is the energetic "M-Bomb", bringing heaving kicks, rave stabs, and vocal snippets together for a rowdy affair. On the flip, "E-Dancer" sees clever sampling and atmospheric pads meet over pounding drums before the propulsive "D-Edge" rounds out the vinyl with slick synthesis and shuffling percussion.
