Falling Acid starts out quite ambientishly before progressively turning into the monster acid deep-house cut that it is.
Tin Man only achieved that level of lushness in his recent vocal stuff, a hint for the upcomming musical shift that was to be. Slow changes occur throughout the mix, essentially with elements flowing in and out when the race gets into its real floor pace. The acid loop sounds like it could vey well be lifted from an old Gherkin stomper, but wouldn't that be a good thing anyways? Stunningly superb!
Excellent three track 12" of sublime acid from Tin Man. "Falling Acid" is, for me, a magical piece of music. A tune I often listen to first thing in morning or last thing at night. Really mellow chords with 303 licks all sitting at 120BPM.
It doesn't alter that much as it plays through either. Nice and steady with subtle changes which keep you tuned in.
The two tracks on the flip side aren't too bad either. "Let's Do Acid" sounds like a really old production. Lots of rim shots, scattered claps, constantly tweaking 303 and some whispered/reversed vocal samples.
"Love And Sex Acid" is fairly bog standard and is probably situated correctly as B2 to the other two tracks.
When I first heard this I simply assumed it's realease date would have been 10-15 years earlier. Really nice to see artists still making this kind of music in this way.
