SQUASH — Big Motion

Squash – Big Motion is the third 12-inch offering from Healer Records (HEALER003), delivering a concise tech-house statement that balances kinetic groove with a touch of percussive flair. The release arrives with two original productions and two reinterpretations, positioning the EP as a compact showcase of Squash’s rhythmic sensibility and the label’s collaborative spirit. Within Healer Records’ recent output, Big Motion follows the earlier HEALER001 “Satisfy Me” and HEALER002 “Changes”, both also by Squash and issued in 2026. The trio of releases underscores a productive partnership between the artist and the imprint, each entry expanding the label’s focus on forward-moving tech house. Side A opens with the title track “Big Motion”, a driving piece that builds tension through a steady pulse and layered textures, setting a tone that is instantly recognisable on the dancefloor. The second cut, “Big Motion (Sleeper Remix)”, re-imagines the original with a club-oriented approach, stripping back some of the intricate layers and foregrounding a more direct, pounding rhythm that suits peak-time moments. Flipping to side B, “Fanta Sí” continues the momentum with a percussive groove that leans into syncopated rhythms, offering a slightly lighter yet still propulsive atmosphere. The final track, “Fanta Sí (Baby Rollén Remix)”, is described as a percussive flip; it reinterprets the original through a crisp, rhythm-centric lens, injecting fresh energy that makes it a useful tool for DJs looking to transition between deeper and more kinetic sections of a set. In the context of Squash’s catalogue, Big Motion builds on the momentum established by “Satisfy Me” and “Changes”, both 12-inch releases on Healer Records earlier this year, while also echoing the artist’s earlier work on other imprints such as the “M Series” on R.A.N.D. Muzik Recordings and the “Minimal Effort EP” on Gradient. The inclusion of remixes by Sleeper—a newcomer noted for a club-focused reinterpretation—and Baby Rollén, who has previously issued “Worthless” (Slump Recordings) and “Automated Reply” (Not for You), adds external perspectives that broaden the EP’s appeal without diluting Squash’s core aesthetic. For DJs, the record offers a clear structural flow: the original “Big Motion” works as a solid opener, while the Sleeper remix provides a more immediate, high-energy option for later in a set. On the B-side, “Fanta Sí” can serve as a bridge between deeper grooves and peak moments, and the Baby Rollén remix supplies a percussive tool for rhythmic transitions. Collectors will appreciate the concise four-track format that captures a snapshot of Healer Records’ 2026 output and highlights the collaborative remix culture within the tech-house scene. The release arrives as a 12-inch vinyl, presenting the tracks in their full analog depth and preserving the tactile experience valued by both DJs and vinyl enthusiasts.
