Josh Butler Drops ‘Strategem’ EP

Having become one of House music’s most revered rising talents of recent years, releasing on esteemed imprints including Cajual, Avotre, MadTech, his very own Origins, Josh Butler now returns to Joris Voorn and Edwin Oosterwal’s Rejected imprint with his new 3-track EP Strategem.

Title-track Strategem takes the lead via upfront heavily swung rhythms and chugging bass stabs alongside echoing vocal murmurs and subtly evolving square wave bass and soft chord hits that ebb and flow throughout the groove.

Punt follows and tips the vibe into deeper realms with airy atmospherics, rumbling subs and filter vocal licks before Psilocybin takes things stripped-back focusing on shuffled percussion, spiralling dub stabs and hooky vocal shots.
