Pangaea and Leonce's collaboration feels like a seamless evolution of their individual styles. "Dusted" takes an energetic approach, drawing on UKG's iconic drum patterns and sharp, chopped vocals. It carries a weightless vibe typical of Pangaea's work, balancing chaos and precision. Fast-paced yet controlled, it captures the spirit of UKG without falling into overused tropes. In contrast, "Stuck" embraces a more laid-back mood, inspired by 90s US club music. It's slower, more patient in its build, and has a warm, spacious feel that provides a striking contrast to the frenetic energy of "Dusted." The interplay between these two tracks highlights the versatility of both artists—though rooted in different scenes, they've skillfully blended their influences into something that feels both innovative and familiar Learn More

Finally, the collection closes with Itoa’s remix of 'Prayer,' which builds a slow, hypnotic groove, blending techno elements with inventive twists for a truly captivating sonic experience. Learn More
