Amongst all of that output \u003ci\u003eRomancing The Stone!\u003c\/i\u003e is a particularly perplexing and beguiling release. The four tracks sound about as disparate from each as anything he's released. It's as if they were made in completely different years on different pieces of gear. For those that have been digging the producer's recent releases the title track fits firmly in that mold. Warm strings and organ stabs ride a 909 beat as the track reveals itself. \"Frogs\" takes things to a completely different world. It starts off as a muted disco edit that slowly gets abducted by an ailing 303. Weird and strange, the track could work wonders in the hands of the right DJ. It's a toss up as to what might be the EP's high-point. Some may go for the title track while others may turn to \"Surpass,\" a slowly building piano house tune that plays perfectly with tension and release. It rides some choppy, syncopated percussion before opening up at the 5 minute mark. \"Leave\" is probably the most straightforward of all of the tracks and does not seem like it would be out of place on a \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/turntablelab.sbs\/search?q=Sex+Tags\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSex Tags\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e release.
