Once upon a car park. In the mid-'90s, DJ Steve and Luca Lozano bonded over Mobb Deep, Droors, and the finer points of frontside flips. Soundtracked by skate videos and boombox freestyles, those formative years were more about asphalt than machines. Time moved on. Steve found his way to stages from Sheffield to Sonar as half of an electro duo; Luca chased underground frequencies from London to Berlin. Life zigzagged. Contact faded. Fast forward a couple of decades and a random reconnection just before lockdown sparked version 2.0 of their friendship -- and a new chapter of collaboration. What started as nostalgia turned into studio marathons and shared sonic visions. The result: Closed Circuit. This is the sound of two old friends channeling 20-year loops -- where electro meets B-boy attitude, house nods to early Warp, and vocoders clash with vintage drum machines. Think sun-bleached jeans, fuzzedout tape hiss, and that pre-internet rush of discovery. To top it off, Running Back's own Roman Flügel contributes a sharp remix flip, and the sleeve features archival photos taken by Lozano during his early London days (2002-2005) -- moments frozen in grain and sweat from some of the city's first DIY parties. Friendship. Frequencies. Full circle. Closed Circuit.
