Sydney’s dancefloor sanctuary Templar Sound reigns in a new year of club music with Atlanta’s own DJ Vague (another sound and strand from the producer Helix), who constructs a 3-track highway soundtrack of muscular, drive-loop techno with Porsche Trax – ricocheting teasing bass figures, blown-out synths, and the darker hues of house into an 18-minute flare of euphoria. From the stuttering, suffocating kicks and restless reserve of ‘Porsche Trax 1′ to the smoky claps that ring-in its uplifting follow-up, Porsche Trax is a reversal of the glass-edged precision of his Club Constructions releases as Helix on London label Night Slugs. Maintaining a foreboding streak right the way through to the scanning phasers and ricketing finale of ‘Porsche Trax 3′, DJ Vague’s inspired remit to produce for the perfect drive has proved a marbled result – splicing the physical and cerebral into a release perfectly realised for the dancefloor-driven Templar Sound. ABOUT THE LABEL Templar Sound is an introspective, dancefloor sanctuary operating out of Sydney, Australia. The label has opened the gates for uncompromising techno (DJ Vague, Bardeya, Cliques), raw kick drum workouts (Tuff Sherm, Victoria Kim), and exercises in mystical atmospheres (Mokona). Parallel to its club tracks, Templar Sound’s white label grime series has carved out a transnational reputation by pitting the label’s artists against figureheads of the movement: Dro Carey v Merky Ace, Mokona v Youngstar and Ruff Sqwad’s own Rapid.
