The latest EP from bass music producer and label friend Destrata lands on Club Designs with a sound that’s deeper, heavier and more techno-driven than anything the label has released before.
Fresh off acclaimed releases on !K7, Scuffed Recordings and Martyn’s 3024 Records, the Vancouver-based producer sharpens his focus here on techno framework, layering complex percussion with dense, low-end pressure.
The release also includes 2 collaborations with label founder Garneau. The tracks carry Destrata’s detailed production front and centre, while Garneau’s ghetto house grit simmers in the background, creating a dark-room atmosphere built for heavy systems.
On remix duty, GREAZUS twists one cut into a bass-loaded global club weapon, while ZDBT delivers the EP’s most striking moment: a sleek and deep techno-fuelled reimagining that refracts Club Designs’ Detroit electro roots through a 4×4 lens.
Overall, the EP signals a bold shift for the label into a leaner, tougher, and more techno-focused, while still retaining the experimental spark that defines its catalogue.
