'“Kink” has been a favorite of mine to hammer out in the past months! My favorite part about this track by upcoming NY City based duo Truth x Lies, besides the chunky driving beat and arrangement, are the vocals by Josh Tobias which take this track to the next level! Great work all around, I’m excited about this SLOTHACID release!' - Love, Sacha

Niles Shepard are starting to feel at home on SLOTHACID with their third release and this time they have collaborated with Toronto duo, Dog N Hoss on 'Click Click Clack'.

This track brings different worlds together with a simple minimal bass line, reminiscent of the late 2000s but with loud distorted synths on top, and interspersed with tongue clicks that create a somewhat futuristic machine feel to this record. A certified banger!

Quoting Niles Shepard, “We are thrilled to be back on Slothacid once again, this time with our Northern brothers Dog n Hoss. ‘Click Click Clack’ is a rude and relentless ride so buckle up and enjoy!"


Quoting Dog n Hoss, “Collaborating with NilesShepard on ‘Click Click Clack’ was just as natural as peanut butter and jelly on a sandwich. It was so easy to bounce ideas off one another that the track came together quite seamlessly and we knew right away we had a stomper on our hands. When we had heard that Sacha got a hold of the track and loved it we were over the moon, then when we found out he wanted to sign it to Slothacid we had to prevent ourselves from going warp speed to Tatooine.”

For the first SLOTHACID release of 2022, Sacha Robotti teams up with the comedian Alex Hooper to bring you the hilarious "I'm Having Fun" track. 
We're excited about this release! Some words by Alex:

"My favorite things in the world are laughing and dancing, but it's rare you get to do both at the same time. Why take ourselves seriously when we are all dressed like lunatics and having the time of our lives?
The first time Sacha played the track at Dirtybird Campout, I knew we were onto something. It started with confusion, then laughter, and as soon as the beat dropped the crowd went nuts. The group in front of me tried to Shazam the song!
We wanted to make something unique. A song that would cut through the dance floor but be instantly relatable. Everyone has had an internal "freak out" moment during a party that could never be captured. With Alex's bizarre vocal desperation and Sacha's ability to make you wanna groove, the track is four minutes of "I'm not sure what's happening but I like it a lot."

“Party Like 2019” is the final release of yet another strange year and comes courtesy of the Sloth boss himself, Sacha Robotti. Made during the pandemic, it didn’t have a title until recently.

Influenced sonically by Berlin in the 2000s, the track is both dark and silly. Featuring flamenco claps that mingle with off-beat noises and human interjections, cut & pasted over a caveman-like bass line that keeps thumping along, interlaced with psychedelic breaks with reverberated risers and framed by a funky sporadic guitar lick that reminds you to come back to earth every so often.

In his own words, “This track reminded me of the chaos I was living in throughout 2019, my relentless touring schedule and the party excess, as well as the premonition I had that something life changing on a planetary level was about to happen”.

JTJ returns to SLOTHACID with a new 4 track EP that features two vocal collaborations with label boss, Sacha Robotti.

"Do It Again" the title cut is a tried and tested peak time banger featuring a massive bassline, a catchy vocal recording by Sacha as well as glitchy high-end FX that take the track into another dimension. Just do it again!

"Pop That", an homage to weirdo grooves and UK fidget, retains the same energy: a sonic build up and once again, a Sacha vocal drop sees the track sit nicely between fidget & tech-house with a punk attitude with JTJ also supplying a dub mix.

Rounding off the EP, "Twenty 4 Seven" is a hypnotic house cut that sews this body of work together beautifully. Equally at home in warm up or peak time sets, this one shines a light on JTJs flexibility as a producer. Excited to share this music with you.
