Jerome takes sole control over the latest Apotek release, The Canine EP.Definitely lacking anything but inspiration in the studio, Mr. Sydenham rides the wave of productivity with his latest EP of Techno-Funk for his Apotek label; an EP that might have you reaching for the number of the nearest veterinary clinic.

'Bad Dog' shows Jerome exploring an experiment in thoroughly inspired Chicago-House flavoured Techno. Lake Michigan's chill runs all through the bass, hats and snares. A-sides don't come much better than this.

Completing the A-Side is, 'Rabid Dog'. This is some foam-mouthed Techno with a lighter hint of old-school Chicago.

The B-side makes it all safe to pet again. 'Good Dog' is a classy tune complete with Detroit stabs that get the Jerome treatment and a heavy dose of perfectly tinged 909 hats, that slice right through the mix.

'Stray Dog', brings it all full circle with a dementedly percussive tom rhythm. This device will get you out of any jam, when straight up beats with depth are called for.
