Axis Trax are proud to introduce one of California's finest underground dance acts, Spanking Machine. Their sound is predominantly electronic but intergrates many elements and influences to create a unique vibe to their music. A sound which in the past has gained them support from the likes of Carl Cox, John Graham, Hernan Cattaneo, Hybrid and Dave Seaman. Their first single with us is the dark and driving 'Suffer & Sacrifice' and comes in variety of flavours! Their own 'Naked Mix' takes a progressive route whilst their 'Naughty Naughty Mix' is more on the rolling psy-trance tip. Finally Rachel Ellektra goes for a slightly more bouncy tech-house tip and adds a dub to complete the package. We hope you enjoy them!
