Techno heavyweights Christian Smith and Eric Sneo join forces once again for a blistering new release on Tronic. Titled Deluxe EP, the two-track offering is a masterclass in energetic grooves and peak-time power, dropping on May 30th, 2025.
The collaboration was born during Smith’s recent studio trip to Germany, where the pair locked in and created something that fuses old-school techno spirit with razor-sharp modern production.
Opening track “Life Moves Pretty Fast” is an all-out floor destroyer. Channeling nostalgic rave energy, it delivers fat analog stabs, propulsive rhythms, and a groove that doesn’t quit. It’s a full-throttle cut designed to ignite dancefloors and nods to the golden era while remaining firmly rooted in the now.
On the flip, “Deluxe” dives deeper. Driven by arpeggios and a hypnotic undercurrent, the track simmers with tension while never losing the punch that defines both producers’ signature sound. It’s the kind of roller that pulls you in and doesn’t let go — a late-night weapon built for dark rooms and strobe-lit warehouses.
With Deluxe EP, Smith and Sneo prove once again why they’re masters of their craft. Whether you’re after high-octane peak-time energy or a hypnotic trip, this EP delivers both in spades.
