Influences with Capes & Adult Hits
Capes & Adult Hits are the two LA-based artists behind the latest release on our little sister imprint Human Endeavour Records.
The EP celebrates the sonics that the pair champion at their Sensory Signal parties in the West Coast city – acid, electro and breakbeats that stimulate the mind, body and soul.
‘Stellar Bodies’ features a collaboration with fellow Los Angeles artist and vocalist Dick Ensalada that’s an ode to everyone’s favourite “room odourizer”, followed by three acid breakbeat stompers built for sweaty dance floors.
Working with a condensed analog set up, they opted to restrict themselves to three pieces of gear per track, and the results speak for themselves.
To celebrate the release Capes & Adult Hits select five tracks each that inspired the sounds you’ll hear across the EP, from Miss Kittin to Legowelt and Dopplereffekt. Get stuck in below then wrap your ears around the release…

It’s no debate that The Final Frontier is an essential classic in Detroit techno masterclass. To overstate its genius is toilsome. But what makes it such an infectious tune? It’s simplicity.
When we initiated the Stellar Bodies project we had the intention of coming at it through a similar lens, holding ourselves to limitations: 3 Pieces of gear per song and to finish each tune within one session.
The Final Frontier held true to an idea that presented clarity and purpose, which inspired us from track1.
