Back with a third release Sean Dixon’s Final Chapter label has a very solid and defined sound. Opening with his own version, Sean delivers strong kicks, deep bass and steady percussion, together with warm melodic elements, with his synth tones with a feeling of looseness, all underpinned by steady vocal samples. Oliver Deutschmann ratchets things up to deliver a weightier yet more stripped back version, relying much less on the range of the vocal sample, but maintaining the human connection with what is used. His second version, equally heavy, seems to roll more, while mangling vocal elements and allowing effects to help them fill space, as a solid bass tone drives the listener along. Joel Alter provides a far lighter and more shuffled variant, which juxtaposes the previous reworks in a wonderful way as he maintains a quirky, but recognizably housier version of Sean Dixon’s original.

Following hot on the heels of the acclaimed "Warehouse E.P.", Final Chapter returns. Once again Stockholm's Sean Dixon perfectly executes a pair of heavy, late night, club tracks kicking off with "Perspective" with its subtle organ stabs, tight percussion, solid bass and inspirational vocal. Detroit´s Jared Wilson remakes it with with an older feel, then twists it into something more raw, dusty and intense. "Anxiety" wobbles subtly into being with haunting synth parts and pleasurably disjointed percussive elements, which keep interest and maintain a groove, only to be straightened into something much more linear as it's remade by Perseus Traxx, spreading the heavy and unsettling tones of his own anxieties.
