Chicago icon and Disctechno label head Mark Grusane teams up again with Detroit-based Eric Schwab for a second volume of the Midwest Rhythms series with four versatile house tracks.

The A1 Easy Strider uses low-slung skittering drum patterns, a classic FM bass walk and a touch of 303. Acid Hole layers a tension-building acidic pulse over a jacking 707 beat and spacey effects and fills. On the B-side, Youre In Danger combines dissonant pads, plucky synth and bass lines, and warbled verbal warnings. The record concludes with Erics reconstructed version of the title track from Marks 2023 album, A House of My Own, using assorted gear to bring new colors to a modern Chicago house classic.
