Pegasus Heat – XXX Elote [EPISODES005]
As temperatures rise into the hot ‘n’ sticky in the Windy City, Pegasus Heat touches down with their debut EP for Episodes. The newly-formed Chicago duo ignites the decks with 3 tracks of beating, purely analog jam-outs accompanied by a remix from Ike Release.
Tin Man – Underdog EP Part 1 [POM033]
After delivering Absurd Recordings with its first Acid Test in 2011, Tin Man lines up some more acid for Pomelo. For DJs in search of drum track acid techno, “UR”, is a good start. Taking a break from acid, but remaining on the drum trax tip, “Stay Down”, is a brooding and synthy production that keeps itself from straying to close to the red – a perfect DJ tool for more reasons than just functionality.
Patrik Sjeren – WorkThat Body [VR001]
Swedish acid techno legend Patrik Sjern has experienced something of a career revival since an unexpected production credit on a FXHE 12″ last year; this EP for the newly minted Virgo Rising label is his second of 2013 following that excellent 12″ for the Fit operation out of Detroit. Not bad for someone who’s been seemingly absent since a ’95 12″ on the Fuck Pig Recordings label. The lead cut packs similar heat to Steve Poindexter’s seminal “Work That Mutha Fucker” with its hyperactive ’90s-styled acid synths weaving in between hardcore Adam X industrial strength sonics. Sharing the A-side is the cut up, percussive and broken ghetto techno of “Mannitj”, while Adam Rivet’s remix to the title track slows in BPM, opting for something much lighter in comparison, it’s equally jacking, with uplifting synths stopping the EP from becoming too much of a militant monster.
Dez Williams – The Angel Maker EP [EAR004]
Dez Williams with a new release on Earwiggle. Starting with the melting frequencies of ‘Underground Persistent’, acid is in control, combining swingy 808 drums and masterful Detroit strings to a searing acid-line that keeps going and going. Switching things into more straight-ahead acid territory on A2, ‘Untitledacid 6’ has pretty much one intention and that’s to jack hard. ‘Freedom’ on the flip is a dense techno workout that joins a strong looped vocal and distorted percussion to swamping sound fx, in a rough but funky way. This time an expert pad progression brings the track to an unexpected but fitting finale. Finally, and showing what a complete supremo he is where dark floor-friendly electro is concerned, Dez turns in a blistering cut of sci-fi electro with ‘Courtesy Call’.
Spirit Of The Black 808 – Analog Funktions EP [EPISODES004]
Chicago’s Spirit Of The Black 808 materializes on Episodes. Having experienced the ebb and flow of the Chicago House scene through many of its eras, the veteran rises up with 3 slices of original Chicago-style machine funk
Fatjack – Acid Flash [ACIDICTED_1.0]
Acidicted jacks back with Fatjack ‘spure TB-303 tweakin acid anthem on a special black-labled-dj-edition with additional TR-707 bonus pattern.
Todd Osborn – 303 / 909 [7777005]
Upcoming release from Todd Osborn on Jared Wilson’s 7777 label. The A-Side track 303 explores some dark acid territory, while the B-Side 909 is a melodic house track in Osborn’s signature style. Like previous 7777 releases, we do not expect these to last long.
The Exaltics – Das Heise Experiment [AACIDLP002]
The Exaltics have been rippin’-up the acid vibes for some time now, gathering momentum from the efforts and hard work of imprints such as Solar One Music, Transient Force, Last Known Trajectory, Bunker and Panzerkreuz and of course more recently Crème Organization, Trust and our friends at Abstract Acid. As such, the time has come for a full-length acid project, entitled ‘Das Heise Experiment’ which originates from The Exaltics’ desire to take things a notch deeper, while pushing the acid a step into more menacing and quite devilish territory. For those that appreciate such dastardly dark styles, well, you will not be disappointed with this album. Coarse acid coupled with sublime soundscapes and ubiquitously haunting melodies make for the perfect combination.
