Click Box Release New EP

• 20th Sep 2012

It’s been a busy summer for Brazilian duo Click Box. As well as lighting up dancefloors across Europe, including Richie Hawtin’s spectacular ENTER. show in Ibiza, the pair have been working on a string of new releases. From the Clock Active EP for Brazilian label Noise Music in March receiving props from Depeche Mode legend Martin Gore to the summer hit “One,” released in July with Items & Things’ compilation Variables and their Body Fall EP for Minus, it seems that despite their two-year hiatus in their hometown of São Paulo, Click Box are proving to be as much in demand now as ever.

Their new Down Over EP will drop on Items & Things on September 21, another showcase of Click Box’s multifaceted and unconventional freshness. Opening track “Stop Down” takes cues from early acid house, playing with the framework to accommodate their own spacious sound design. “Last Day” is a low-down roller, with a sunken bassline and jabbing, processed vocals that keep the atmosphere dark and dangerous. “Something Wrong” is a vocal number that unfolds in an alternate italo disco dimension, and digital-only track “Stop Over” is sleek and classic Click Box minimalism. Madato has been a most intriguing discovery of Items & Things’ revival, and his Wrong Way Remix of “Something Wrong”, flips and dissects the track for deeper brand of a robotised funk.

With Down Over EP Click Box are back, and they’re also reaffirming what we knew all along: they are undoubtedly one of the most dynamic outfits of modern electronic music. The duo will be touching down at Showcase in Paris on September 21 and Madrid’s Fabrik on September 23 with more dates to be announced soon!
