As two mainstays of Durham, NC’s eclectic dance community, who make very different types of music, James Mapley-Brittle and Nick Sanborn have crossed paths at many of the same parties over the years, but it was a conversation about their mutual love for peak-hour club music that ultimately brought them together to make Inertia.

Inertia is out now via Psychic Hotline, and available to pre-order on limited vinyl. In addition to its title track,“an energetic cut which delivers trance-tinged techno” (Mixmag), Inertia features “Tempest,” “Interference” and “Aerial,” with the entire EP translated into mind-bending visual form through the artwork of Eric Timothy Carlson and Aaron Anderson (Bon Iver, Boys Noize, Leon Vynehall).
