 Freak Out! Punkers EP, the debut release from Portland, OR’s Freak Out!, tunes in from a frequency emanating from a loosely parallel timeline bridging the past, future, and eternal: a far mellower mirror of our own reality where punks, freaks, and benevolent stoned wanderers still walk the Earth; where the “electronica” section is still stop #1 at the record store; where prismatic big beat sample-driven bangers still rainbow together dancefloors across oceans.

This manner of casual cosmic time-and-space-tripping now comes confidently as second nature to the Certified Bad Boys™ of Freak Out!, who have been growing their amorphous and genre-fluid sound-Pulse globally of late with mixes for heavy-hitting musical collectives such as Sound Metaphors, Dream Chimney, and Test Pressing.

Those hailing from the mirror timeline will immediately recognize the titular Punkers off the OST from Playstation 1 classic Burrito Run: Venice Beach; others will have less context but be no less stoked for this loose-limbed rave anthem flinging the EP down the rail with force quite impressive indeed. Lucky Stoned pumps the brakes but rolls the top down, welcoming a cool breeze of pop-shoegaze sleaze before a glittering flock of synth-gulls alight across the backseat, cruising into smoggy coral under the credit roll.

Time for a cheeky snack: Herbs and Spices smears a proprietary blend of over 45 local and international flavors (patent pending) all over a high-energy Elektro-Kebab certain to provide critical energy and nutrients. Not a moment too soon, as EP closer The Answer wrings out every ounce of protein and emotion you’ve got left with an elegantly harmonized French house-flavored midtempo thumper shutting things down with vocoded sunbeams of love blasting through the stained-glass windows.

But that’s not all! Well-befitting a recorded item so reminiscent of the time of Little Plastic Discs, Freak Out! have graced us all with a stellar BONUS TRACK. As revealed by the squelchy classic techno version of the track delivered by Los Angeles own DX3, the Punkers are dropping acid—and they love it.
