2025 repress. Part two! PYE CORNER AUDIO — the main project of sound engineer MARTIN JENKINS, who also works under the THE HEAD TECHNICIAN moniker for cutting-edge electronic labels like BOOMKAT EDITIONS and ECSTATIC — delivers a two-part work focused on the "303"! Spatially minded dub treatments, contagious acid lines, and a deep dance trip that seeps in psychedelically.
A new series to watch from leftfield frontrunners EMOTIONAL RESPONSE! Recorded live during lockdown, this suite of tracks makes generous use of his main hardware, including the Roland RE-501 and the Roland TR-06 and TR-08. Highlights include "Stegan Acid" (sample1), dramatic acid that opens with minimal acid before unfolding and layering up spectacularly, and the midtempo "Thermionic Acid" (sample2), where acid creeps in through vacuum-tube sonics. An eye-opening deep acid production that conveys both a love for acid house forged in his youthful rave days and a fresh update on it!
