DJ Home Movies Despite the tongue-in-cheek cover, this isn't your regular brand of acid. Nah, it's something more natural, something that scratches past the surface of your psyche. If you enjoy the methodology of experimentation, and love quirky sounds and rhythms, without it sounding abrasive, or giving up its depth, highly recommend this album then. Favorite track: None Of This Is Helping.

Ewy No idea how many times I e played these tracks on the MP3 player. Everything just slams together and rides out beautifully. Can't express how much respect I have for this guy.

Form1essBe1ng Absolutely lovely. This will be in heavy rotation for me. Favorite track: None Of This Is Helping.

Extralife Analord 8,9,10 meets EOD jams of the '10s. Guy sounds like a natural. Love. Favorite track: Berriat Acid.

Jibidy Can we have a vinyl release of this pretty please?

about

Exquisitely written and executed, hardware driven acid techno and electro recalling the 'smile until your face hurts' vibes of Analord era AFX and the perfect alien spheres of Dopplereffekt.

Opening track "Drum Machine Makes Me" blasts out the blocks all mad-scientist in the lab style with cheeseball effects smattering the stereo before the perfect plucking counterpoint rushes through to glue the track together with a little melancholy tech. "Berriat Acid" follows with action movie Linn drumming out high pace procedures to the troops... dumb smiles abound! "Compact 31" is all class, sci-fi electro from the warmest place.

The B-side open with "None Of This Is Helping", a truly rousing piece of dramatic trancey acid, replete with white hot 303 lines just blasting you off at 1000mph to some burning horizon. The track just keeps on growing and peeling more and more layers until it's disco core is revealed and left to vibrate. "Sensitive Acid Boy", does what it says on the tin... and then some. Beautifully raging melancholic acid like a prime cut of Analord un-history given a dose of adrenaline to the heart and told to keep on going, don't give up. Special stuff here. "Ride With Jeff" closes us out and again this vision of speed and movement is so accurately conjured by the French wiz, ZZ Top gone cyborg, too too dope. Keep on running.
