Collecting the Modal, Opponent and Entity Stims EPs alongside the brand-new focus track 'Naiveventide', Steep Stims II arrives after Clark's Bicep collaboration 'Viper' (feat. Saskia), out now and his exclusive track on Djrum's DJ-Kicks (16 October). So heavy is the gravitational pull of the Stims that Clark is still steeped in them a year later. It wasn't long after the album's release that another LP's worth materialised; enticing EPs dropped throughout 2026 as he fell ever further into the rabbit hole of Steep Stims. Amassing an insatiable body of anything goes dancefloor leftfieldisms road tested on tour, Clark gathers Modal, Opponent, and Entity Stims into a rich collection as we reach Steep Stims II: Steep Stims II began life in different places, pulling together retooled hooks, live jams, and lurking archive finds into entirely new productions. It's no coincidence that an encounter with the Access Virus synthesiser became the impetus for this whole period; the wrangling of an old, recalcitrant slab of hardware has produced an infectiousness powering this whirlwind of experiments, while whipping up old tracks in the process. That energy leaks gleefully out into the world, into collaborations with Bicep on their track 'Viper' where the album's compelling details and ferocious electricity reappear. Mixing moods, the album traces these contrasts in an emotional ebb and flow, a hazy afterglow that culminates in Cult Leavers - discreetly shuffling out of the dancefloor wonderland back into the shadows.
