Airsine’s long-standing legacy of crafting immersive, slow-burn psychedelia finds a fresh pulse in “Like Fire”, their debut release on Paisley Dark Records. This four-track EP channels the raw energy of underground dance culture, weaving hypnotic acid grooves with a meditative, low-slung tempo. Designed for dimly lit, after-hours spaces, the project feels like a sonic homage to the fleeting connections and shared euphoria of clandestine dance floors. Layers of throbbing basslines and mechanical funk rhythms anchor the release, while spiraling synth lines evoke a sense of timelessness – a nod to the collective memories of nights where music outlasted the sunrise. On the remix duties, none other than by Mindbender, The Machine Soul, and A Space Age Freak Out (SXDNS123).

Premiered here, The Machine Soul’s rework stands out as a luminous counterpoint to the EP’s shadowy core. Retaining the original’s pulsating heartbeat, the mix introduces sunlit textures and ethereal chord progressions that stretch the track into a radiant, sunrise-ready anthem. The once-murky bassline is softened with warm, melodic undertones, while cascading arpeggios add a celestial lift. This version feels less like a club tool and more like a cathartic journey – balancing Airsine’s brooding intensity with a newfound optimism.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label.
