Alix Perez - Sabotage (2026)

Alix Perez returns with a polished drop of weighty bass textures and intricate percussion, making 'Sabotage' a standout statement for 1985 Music, and the sound as a whole. Featuring 8 studied originals, we begin with both the old school percussive-led stepper textures of 'Cape Reinga' and more LFO-driven bumps of 'Mother Cell', before two high profile collaborations emerge, firstly Cesco on the broken-beat grooves of 'Watch This' and SP:MC on the slamming bass growls of 'Skunkworks'. From here, 'Enter' drops a sonic boom of subby goodness with scuttling synth patterns to boot, with HIJINX then supplying some big room devilry of 'Evil Twin' close behind. Next, Alix pushes out distorted drum madness of 'Rush Them', with Trim arriving for a crunchy finale on the highly explosive 'Kal-El'. Awesome stuff.
