About Release
Alisdair & Mr. Jones – GC003 Alisdair & Mr. Jones opens a concise 4-track split EP on GC Records, catalogued as GC003 and issued as a 12-inch vinyl. The release sits at the intersection of tech house and electro, delivering a blend of analogue bass-lines, robotic samples and glitch-laden synth work that marks a clear statement from the two emerging producers.
Within the GC Records catalogue, GC003 follows the label’s previous outing GC002 – Ross Mvnro LP (2026). While the exact release date of GC003 remains unspecified, its placement after GC002 situates it within a period of the label’s ongoing exploration of forward-looking dance music.
Side A begins with “Otera No Ongaku”, a track that channels the EP’s analogue focus and sets a deep, rolling groove suited to the early moments of a set. Its companion, “Das Cartis”, continues the momentum, offering a slightly more kinetic feel that bridges the first cut with the B-side while retaining the same electro-inflected texture.
On the flip side, “I Love You” introduces a warmer tonal palette, its robotic vocal snippets providing a playful contrast that works well for transitional moments. The record closes with “Laudanum”, a darker, more experimental piece where glitchy synth gestures create tension, making it an effective closing statement or a late-night mood setter.
For Alisdair and Mr. Jones, GC003 adds a focused entry that showcases their ability to intertwine tech house rhythm with electro’s more experimental edge. Within the broader GC Records output, the EP reinforces the label’s commitment to forward-thinking electronic music, sitting comfortably alongside Ross Mvnro’s earlier LP while pushing the aesthetic further into glitch-laden territory.
DJs will find the record useful for building a set that moves from deep, bass-driven foundations to more synthetic, glitch-rich peaks. The first two cuts serve well as opening or early-set selections, while the B-side tracks provide versatile tools for mid-set transitions or closing moments, especially in environments that favour a blend of groove and experimental texture.
The release arrives as a standard 12-inch vinyl, matching the format expectations of collectors who value the tactile and sonic qualities of analog playback. Its straightforward pressing aligns with the label’s aesthetic without additional embellishments.
