When you’ve got a fusion of acid, breaks and electro, that’s techno. AmIright? So, I’m feeling electro as the dominant force in this release, and very good it is too. ‘Acid 19’, as its name suggests, comes as an oven ready piece of very well orchestrated 303 magic, but it is built on solid break dance friendly foundations. Both ‘Crystal Canyon’ and ‘Night Control’ are masterful evocations of deep, emotive electro, with the former’s richer sound countered by the more spacious ambience of the latter. ‘Night Terror’ is an edgier, spikier track that uses a chopped and flanged vocal to great effect. However, in the hands of Lauren Flax it becomes a schizoid, minimal vignette with whiffs of Dan Bell.
