The Trip – Fantasy Traxx

Longstanding party series Tessellate has become a firm fixture in the modern European house scene, and founders Max van Dijk and Oliver Hiam have been channelling their sharp ears into production since 2020. This latest release on their in-house label features a suite of classically-informed 90s house styles, from the throbbing Lately bass and sweet piano chords of 'Let Me Show You' to the sultry 'My Paradise'. On the flip, 'Take You Higher' has space for some anthemic elements aplenty as well, and 'Total 90' aims for pure feel good escapism that could easily cap off a main stage festival set and make sure everyone leaves grinning ear-to-ear.
