referencing Paranoid Experience, 2x12", Album, DJAX-UP-192

A red hot release that flies high in the stratosphere and really does take you on a trip on the intergalactic highway. There was A LOT of "acid" music put out between say, 1986 and 1996, when it started getting really stale, and this release somehow forged a uniqueness unrivalled by any others - even some of the earlier "pioneers" of the movement - and simply stands alone within an immense genre. The Acid Junkies gave "acid" a face (literally on their records!) and made it fun to listen to, and still make it fun to listen to. If I had to boil it down to just a few key releases in a movement that spawned zillions of releases, this would be a school-worthy example. These guys practically wrote the book on minimal acid, yet their minimalism wasn't stripped down too far like all the imitators. It was lush and layered and definitely exciting to hear. It all comes down to a few, and the Acid Junkies are there at the top. about 100 on a scale of 1 to 10.
