Pure Space presents the debut EP from Naarm-via-Boorloo artist CHEAHDX (Darren Cheah), co-founder of Step Count & Serendipity, and a familiar force across Australia's underground. Known for his genre-fluid DJ sets, CHEAHDX distills a decade of dancefloor energy into four cuts built for the system.

Opening track 'Earthbound' sets the tone with heady momentum, bass-fuelled pressure driving straight into hybrid genre territory, a hefty bass workout to kick things off.

'Li-Ion' keeps the pace high, a minimal trance cut sharpened with break-driven percussion and razor-edged sampling. The track levitates, then lets loose, landing squarely on the floor with peak-time energy.

Pulling back the tempo, 'Monte De Pedra' drops into subterranean mode, a low-slung bass workout, equal parts wobble and restraint. It's dance music for lean-back hours, stretching tension through its sub-heavy architecture.

Closing with the title track, 'Visage' blends dreamy pads and whirling horns with expertly sculpted subs, a hybrid closer that ties the EP together in a haze of depth and motion.

CHEAHDX's debut EP on Pure Space marks a producer fully in command of his craft. With roots in bass, breaks, and leftfield electronics (and years clocked on the dancefloor), Visage lands with steeze, weight, and intent.
