Having previously teamed up with the likes of Ta-ku, KAYTRANADA, Stwo, and Sebastian Sartor, our compadres over at HYPETRAK have tapped Tokyo’s Sapphire Slows for the latest HYPETRAK Mix. Entitled “Romantic Acid Night Driving,” the 14-track mix offers a somewhat darker listening experience than the previous mixes and features Aurora Halal, Cities Aviv, Veiled, and many more. Said Sapphire of the project:

I gathered my recent favorite dark electronic tracks. Many of them are today’s experimental techno/house from North America, and the others were made in Europe such as UK, France and Italy. When I make a mix, I always pick first one up from my piled up record collection in the room, and try to imagine and create my own story flowing in the mix from the idea. Unfortunately I can’t explain all the story here, but please just enjoy driving between the beautiful dark acid tracks.

The “Romantic Acid Night Driving” mix can be streamed and downloaded below in its entirety.
