Premiere: RodMan – The Flock

Cluster Traxx continue to push boundaries with the arrival of ‘Birds of Paradise’, the latest offering from Mexican producer Rodrigo Gutiérrez aka RodMan.

With roots firmly planted in the experimental and hyper-physical sounds of Mexico City’s Ineffable and Discos Movimiento, Gutiérrez’s three-track EP comes in heavy with a barrage of remixes from Karlsruhe-based producer 26Degrees, Cluster Traxx regular Mambo Kahn and DNZA.

Birds of Paradise‘ is nothing short of a peak-time club manifesto – a high-octane exploration of digital ecstasy, where fractured breaks meet reggaeton’s deconstructed rhythm, weaving through fevered trance, all while anchored in a cybernetic dystopia where bass reigns supreme.

For our premiere, we’ve picked ‘The Flock’, a track that unfurls like a sentient, cosmic gathering sent to twist your mind. It’s a stratospheric flight through warped, bird-like echoes from creatures dwelling on distant planets. The beat’s breakneck pace slices through the atmosphere, like a laser-guided sequence of spacey vocals and trance-kissed arpeggios. From the first kick, you’re thrown into a hypnotic vortex – percussive tension builds like a slow, deliberate drag through quicksand, each rhythm pulling you deeper into the void.

The second minute brings a sudden shift – distorted lasers collide in a brutal solo, before the track erupts in a chaotic maelstrom of slithering synths and infectious polyrhythms, ensuring that ‘The Flock’ is a ritual for the senses, not just the body.

‘Birds Of Paradise‘ is scheduled for release 25th April via Cluster Traxx Records. Order a copy from Bandcamp.
