Minimum Syndicat - Acid Trojan III

Following a well received string of releases on ‘Analogical Force’, ‘Furthur Electronix’ and ‘Feel My Bicep’ James Shinra makes his debut release on 20/20 Vision. Shinra displays his musical dexterity and diverse influences across this 4 track EP delving deeper into the realms of electro and techno 

’Route 909’ serves up emotive melodies rooted down with a heavy kick before working the keys hard to maximum effect. ‘Flyby’ is a beautiful moment of electronic bliss reminiscent of the great Aphex Twin, while the acid soaked ’1111’ is a certified dance floor bomb. Shinra isn’t adverse to switching tempos and beats and can also deliver flawless techno. The cleverly structured and melodically complex ‘On & On’ rounds up the wax with a track that makes you want to drift away on the dance-floor, prepare to be transported to a future world where machines have emotions.

Release Description:
Three years after the original's release, new life is given to 747's widely acclaimed neoclassic acid anthem, Aurora Centralis. The uplifting track, characterized by its iconic singing 303, is revisited by four masterful artists: Schacke, Tin Man, nthng and Primal Code, each bringing a unique take. 

Opening the release, Schacke delivers a fast and euphoric revamp with an infectious groove and floaty atmosphere, while modern acid legend, Tin Man, executes a flawless take embellished with lush pads and deft 303 work. 

Introducing the B side, nthng's vehement rendition is fierce and ethereal in a way only he can deliver - wish granted. To close, Primal Code bring a hypnotic version with an atmospheric ambiance and a nod to the original through dreamy gliding acid notes.

The digital pack features two additional cuts: Tin Man's Detroit Remix and nthng's Saiyan Dream.

AQR016 // Téo Dréan - 3x500 EP

Tracklist:
3x500
10x400

Release Description:
Making his Aquaregia debut, Téo Dréan presents two stimulating cuts, sonifying the fluid dichotomy between pleasure and pain. 

3x500 opens the release with a dreamy and dripping circuit. Grounded with a rumbling triplet bass, a reverberating acid stab strides alongside to reach the home stretch; a rising arpeggio enveloped in euphoria. Out of breath, the arpeggio reaches its highest point before falling back into its galloping rhythm, restarting once more.

10x400 forges ahead with a booming kick and hypnotizing percussion running the length of the track. Escorted by gentle sweeping pads, we're led to a possessing 303 as it meanders through the course. Lost in thought, the dizzy tension winds its way back to reality, relieved by the thunderous bass.

Artist: Téo Dréan
Title: 3x500 EP
Label: Aquaregia Records
