After appearing on Acid Test’s 10 Year Anniversary compilation Patricia, aka Max Ravitz, debuts an EP on the label with Less Than 7, a collection of tracks that sits squarely in the club-focused end of the label’s output. Ravitz grew up in Chicago and has family roots in Detroit; these cities cultivated his affinity for mid-western dance music, with early Trax Records being a standout favorite. Years later, while living in New York, collaborator Alexis Georgopoulos introduced Ravitz to Tin Man’s Neo Neo Acid LP (released on Acid Test in 2012). This album struck a particular chord, impacting his creative vision for the Patricia project and setting him on the path towards a fruitful collaboration with Tin Man as Ociya (also released on Acid Test). 

After 2021's IDM-leaning Blue Ridge LP, the Less Than 7 EP marks Patricia's return to the dance floor. Here, Ravitz explores four dimensions of acid music, each track deploying that classic squelch to differing effect. Both tracks on the A side pack a gut punch. The almost industrial beat on ‘At A. Gallop’ stomps along under moody pads and dripping acid lines until, midway, new harmonies reveal fresh vistas. ‘Head Gap Width’ is the EP’s most direct statement, a bolt of dubby techno energy with gurgling acid bass and rhythmic Detroit stabs. The B side then shifts things to a more emotive plane. ‘Winding To The Side’ uses its 9 minutes to fully explore the harmonic interplay between its buoyant braindance acid lines, which are engineered to suspend the late morning dance floor in time. ‘Coffee Computer’ closes things out, with its detuned pads, walking acid bassline and child-like piano lending it a wistful air that falls between house and IDM. 

Less Than 7 was recorded at Ravitz’s home studio in Asheville, NC, and mastered by close friend Josh Bonati.

[LYRICS]
woah
oh
woah
hoe? no.

explosive 
corrosive
the tree i be smoking 
no way that im chokin
because i am chosen

got 3 on my line
been taking my time
oh shit they so fine 
they looking divine

been working all night
so i may pick a fight
and then try to forget 
all that shit that i started
because im retarded
my money is guarded
and now im recording 
so dont hit my line  

hope for a chance
maybe one day we'll dance
girl im on fire
ill start it again 
ill show you the world
just please hold my hand
turns out took a tab
now im fucking mad

you left to hold onto my little plans
one day ill blow up and impress all your friends
dont envy your mans
not even you parents
oh shit got a warrent
so i gotta bounce

oh

dont know what you smokin
but its fucking potent
i think of my homies
when im on my own 

got people to call
i aint gonna fall
im just gonna ball
that all imma say
dont question my game
hoe
