Chrissy Shively and Alex Burkat's The Nite Owl Diner has been a consistent source of cooler-than-cool club releases since its inception in 2014. If their latest release, the Future Shock EP from Portland-based producer Strategy, is anything to go by then that run of quality doesn't seem to be faltering yet. The four-track collection features all original productions, each of which explore various shades of club music, from house to UK garage and beyond. EP highlight "Looks Beautiful From Here", like the other three cuts, plunges you headlong through a tunnel of rave nostalgia with its euphoric melodies and bouncy, choppy synths that will have you soaked in sweat and dancing until it hurts.

The vinyl version just dropped, but you can get your hands on the digital version from Oct. 15 via your stockists.
