Sleep Traveler EP vinyl

This is Swat Squad's second release for Galaktika Records, the 'Sleep Traveler EP'. The brainchild of Oliver Henares, Swat Squad
has been published before by labels like Treibstoff and Resopal. Henares also runs a record label of his own, Pulsewith. He mainly
plays live, but also deejays. As for the 'Sleep Traveler EP'. The journey begins with the title track, and what a beginning it is. When
the needle drops our hero (you) is confronted with a series of adventures, one after another, one deadlier than the other. He gets
attacked by laser guns, keyboards and walls of sound and always manages to come out at the other end, ready for what's next. On
the dance floor 'Sleep Traveler' will hit hard and show no mercy. In the second track we find our hero (you) standing tall in an eerie
land of ice and mirrors. You aren't cold though, a fire is burning inside you. Unpredictable cuts are thrown your way, but a person with
a mission won't stop. This time you're the one everyone should be afraid of. When you drop 'Iceberg' on a club, people will get in the
zone and dance all the way through it. The spell will be broken by the next song and you'll notice everyone thinks only a few seconds
has passed, but no. We get back in galactic territory with 'A Little Less Gravity'. In this track you are in a complete zen-like state,
defeating easily whoever crosses your path. The road is less bumpy this time, but far more mysterious. In the final moments of the song
your mortal enemy, the one you're looking for, stands in your way, it has been waiting for a while. You keep walking steadily, it attacks,
and your response is so perfect that you beat him as easily as the guards before him. There's perplexion in its eye, there's certainty in
yours, and then, silence. Also, all tracks come with a DJ friendly ending. So there.
