Acidulant - Illustrations Of Acid EP

Review by Leo Newball

Illustrations of Acid is an album that showcases the talents of Acidulant, a DJ and producer who has been making waves in the electronic music scene. The album is a collection of tracks that are inspired by acid house, a genre that originated in the late 1980s and is characterized by its use of the Roland TB-303 synthesizer.

The album opens with "Acid Jungle," a track that sets the tone for the rest of the album with its pulsating bassline and intricate percussion. From there, Acidulant takes the listener on a journey through the different facets of acid house, from the hypnotic "Acid Trip" to the frenetic "Acid Rave."

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Acid Symphony," a sprawling epic that clocks in at over 10 minutes. The track builds slowly, layering in different elements until it reaches a fever pitch of acid-fueled energy. It's a testament to Acidulant's skill as a producer that he's able to keep the listener engaged for such a long track.

Summary by Leo Newball

Illustrations of Acid is a must-listen for fans of acid house and electronic music in general. Acidulant has crafted a collection of tracks that are both true to the genre's roots and forward-thinking in their approach. It's an album that will keep listeners coming back for more.
