Matt Nowak inaugurated Zaijenroots under his No Mad Ronin moniker alongside Jerome Sydenham in 2013 (ZAI 001EP), before reappearing for the second release with Quiet Daze (Ian Pooley) on remix duties (ZAI 002EP). Here, "Aleister" sees Nowak and Sebastian Klenk create an acosmic track that opens with a touch of funk before sullen synths make way for punchy SP-1200 beats and unsettling throbs. Sydenham's remix of No Mad Ronin's "Chemical Planet," from Zaijenroots' second release, features a perennial hook joined by intangible spoken samples and a subtle sub-bass. The subterranean "Lenore" ties things together with echoes and spacey atmospherics.
