Shifting Gears EP

Straight from gloomy Vilnius, Aleks Pletnev (aka Ponty Python / part of Moisk duo) is delivering a new record for London-based imprint Burnin Music. As a DJ, Alex is a resident of well-known funhouse Opium in Vilnius.During recent years, as a producer, Aleks released music via Meda Fury, Needs, Not an Animal and many many more.After a loud & sold-out release for R.A.N.D x Echocentric records earlier in 2023, Pletnev continues his killer combo moves with “When The Job Is Done” EP. We start with the tallest in the family A1 “Wandering Mind, Go F Yourself” tune: meaty uptempo retro-trance with 90s-Ibiza-like string melody on top. Then we exhale with A2 ambient beauty “Water Can Keep Your Secrets Too” inspired by William Orbit’s 90s music.B1 “The Last True Gentleman On Earth” could bring fresh air to a sweaty 5am dance floor - dreamy house in the beginning it evolves into a battle with Amen break loops and FM basslines. B2 ”When The Job Is Done” is a prog-house DJ tool with talking acid, chopped breaks, blips & 90s FXs.
