[ATLP02] TIN MAN
NEO NEO ACID >>
Neo Neo Acid, Tin Man’s full-length continuation of the pivotal Nonneo single, delves further into the mind-body separation. It’s as straightforwardly club-ready as anything Tin Man has released, but its ambitions are no less lofty: Neo Neo Acid creates a space beyond intellect, a stimulant for creativity at its least abstracted.
[ATLP01] RECONDITE
ON ACID >>
Acid Test’s first double pack is a mini album of deep melancholic acid tracks from the Berlin based producer, Recondite. Includes remixes from label mate Tin Man and Scuba. The Bavarian born producer Recondite’s style is soft, melodic, stripped down techno music. Those attributes are certainly linked to the hinterland he grew up in. Thus far, his output on his own Plangent Records has been the only platform he’s released and the “On Acid” album proves his sound has much to offer.
Out March 19th, 2012.

Available in all good record shops.

Recorded for his overture at the Labyrinth festival in 2010 and comprised of a Devilfish 303,
Juno 60 and Roland SH-2 - “In Bed” is a spaced out ambient acid tune in signature Dozzy
style, meanwhile, Tin Man takes the melody of the original and turns it into a dark tripped
out acid journey including the addition of his vocal.

ACID TEST 02 >>
Part 2 in the Acid Test series comes by way of a new project from Berlin’s Iron Curtis.
Along with his partner Edit Piafra we introduce ‘Achterbahn d’Amour’.
“Your Love” is a live jam with melancholic chords and reverbed vocals sneaking in. Slow and cranky clocking in at a mere 115 bpm. While the even slower “Talking Acid” has a slo-mo dub vibe with a little 303 bassline. London’s Idjut Boys turn in 2 massive remixes of “Your Love” - Uncompromising drugged-out stuff with dark delayed soundscapes.

[ASD012] SEBASTIAN ROYA
MENTAL EP >>
Sebastian Roya joins Absurd and to kick things off is a fresh new release from the Gran Canaria producer entitled the Mental ep.
2002 is a rhythmically shuffling trip which builds on a percussive and intricate start, sculpting nicely into a warm house groove.
Mollono.Bass turns in a groovy remix that stays true to the original, yet injects his unique ear for detail.
Mental is a dark techno infected track with a simple deep bass line and eerie vocal sample. Very raw with a great analogue feel.
Fabric’s Pure Science takes things in a more laid back groovy direction and adds a muted acid riff which makes for those perfect morning hours.
Mental…

Nice set of moods and vibes on this entire EP, getting off to a warm start with the late night Detroit-meets-London styled trippiness of “Absurd Behavior” - stripped down drums, deep synth washes and spacey voices galore. The other cuts walk a tightrope between tough dancefloor grooves and more abstract adventures.
