Internet Daughter and Eytan Tobin's "Acid Trap" Was Inspired by a Summer Heatwave and LSD

When we spoke to Bedroomer's Eytan Tobin last year, the producer described how the Toronto collective has brought likeminded individuals together, saying "I think a lot of the people that feel like outsiders within the dance and electronic scene just kind of… gravitate to us." At their first party in 2013, he met Internet Daughter, and the two quickly bonded over a love of music and shared commonalities in DJing and production styles.

Today we're premiering their first collaborative effort under the moniker ID x ET, "Acid Trap," which merges their respective influences into one aggressively-paced club jam. As the title suggests, their creative process was inspired by a shared drug trip, combining heavy sub-bass, off-kilter percussion, and unidentifiable vocal samples.

"We made this song during the first heatwave this summer, which was around the time both of us started experimenting with LSD," Tobin told THUMP over email. "We were both going through a creative block following our earlier releases in the year, so we decided to lock ourselves in a room and take a healthy amount of the psychedelic."
