Companion collection of eight songs sourced from the Visions sessions, offering a parallel cutaway of Jupiter Jax’s crucial, vaporous house. Soft-edged synth-lines sink through thick snakes of bass, freejacked by ice-dusted drum machinations. As elsewhere, a mood of mirage hangs heavy in these pieces – beats lead in circles, acid spirals, shapes waver. Melodies mediate between cloaked glare (“Knowing You,” “Sequential”) and neuromancer strut (“Basic Rhythms,” “That’s The Way,”), the dance blueprints grainy but glowing. The 4 AM context is clear; the tide of life ebbs back and things reveal themselves. “Until I Can Feel Again” closes this chapter of the Jax reliquary, echoing the promise through corridor-reverbed rhythm, a vanishing point bassline, and chorused chemtrails of keys, stripping the ring around his planet to its starkest silhouette. Wave one last time through the hatch window. Mastered by Alex Nagle.
