Studio-X Vs. Simon Carter - Our Promise (Alfa Matrix) Review by Steve Thomas-Green I am so far out of my comfort zone here, it’s not funny. But I’ve always been about expanding my musical horizons (as well as my waistline, unfortunately), so here we go. I’m not sure if I’d call an 11 track release an EP, but I get why it has been classed as an EP, as this contains 3 new tracks, plus remixes from the projects last album, Disconnected, but in a club/dance format… which is why I’m completely out of my comfort zone here. I may have seen well over 4000 bands live, but I’ve never been to a tradi�onal nightclub in my life. And that stat will never change (thankfully). So yes, this is very danceable, (not that I dance, or can dance) with bouncing techno beats and addic�ve keyboards and the alluring vocals of Bridge�e Collins. And I’ve found it impossible not to enjoy… a lot. It’s probably been the promo I’ve played the most over the past few weeks. I have been exploring realms close to this with my Dark Dance shows and I will be including something from this EP in my next show as it’s a perfect example of dance music and the dark side of electronica combining to make something, that I consider to be a bit special. I don’t really care about genres these days… if I like it, I’ll play it… whatever the style of music. And this is fucking addic�ve. h�ps://alfamatrix.bandcamp.com/album/our-promise-ep h�ps://www.facebook.com/Alfa.Matrix/
