Psychic 9-5 Club was the first record from HTRK recorded as a duo, following the death of founding member Sean Stewart. The Melbourne group's early records being released on Blast First and Fire should give some hints to their sound - textured post-punk guitars, dubby basslines, and skittering drums. This record is their most melancholy, anchored by a foreboding low-end rumble and haunting vocals by Jonnine Standish. “Blue Sunshine” has snares reduced to a mere hiss, while “Chinatown Style” has an earthy, musique concrete vibe. Mastered for vinyl by Rashad Becker at D&M Berlin, long before everything on earth was. This record comes in a debossed sleeve and is pressed on black vinyl.
