Fresh off the press, this 4 track EP has it all. From 90s piano mixes, deep house vibes and disco divas. As usual, we've included one of our old tracks remastered and spiced up, "Better Day" was originally released back in 1997 on the XX-Large EP, this new version captures the original vibe with a new twist. This will be the last release from Explosive Records in 2025 and I'm sure you'll agree it's an absolute classic. Hope you all have an amazing Christmas and new year x
