In Dirt Crew's 20th celebration year comes Loz Goddard. With his standout debut collab release with Harry Wolfman in 2016 he has developed a unique mix of electronica, deep soundscapes and lush organic Deep House on labels such as Oath, Razor N Tape, Church, Outplay, and Apparel Music. Now he finally returns with a mini album that features beautiful crafted ambient and electronica cuts paired with three upbeat tracks that will for sure shake the dance floors in and outdoors. In his own words, here are some insights on the influences and production process of these six pieces: "The release is named after a night in the White Hotel in Salford watching Skee Mask. At the time I had a bunch of unfinished ambient ideas as a result of making Balloon Tree Road (out on Oath). There were a lot of ideas I still loved that didn't get finished for that release, so I set about finishing them late 2022 and early 2023 with the view to releasing an EP or 'mini album' that was again angled a bit more towards home-listening. The more upbeat tracks are newer jams that I created in 2023. I wanted to include a few club-ready tracks on the record as well, so the release appeals to DJ's as well as home listeners. I approached the production much like my past two records on Oath, with lots of live drum elements, some sampling and a mixing approach which keeps everything sound warm and organic. It's rough round the edges -- as has been the case with my productions of late - and offers a nice contrast to my DJ sets and radio shows at the moment, in which I am playing mostly deep/progressive house, breaks, and techno. There's some influence on the title track from the deep and lo-fi house sound of artists like Baltra and Mall Grab, and I have taken influence from all the breaks I've been playing in DJ sets for 'How's This for a Vague Song Title.'"
