Reviews
A great album. The smokey gray pressing is very cool, as is the album art. I've always appreciated what ACR does and this record is no exception. If you're a fan, get this record. If you're not familiar with them, this is as good an "intro" to their music as anything.
Edited one year agoListen to the Certain Ratio Release right now...great...how you bring so many influences from Afrobeat + Acid House to Kraftwerk under one roof...chapeau...that's 40 years of music history beamed "on the goove"….the grooviest retro masterpiece i heard in the last years…- Fantastic record. Excellent pressing. To my ears sounds noticeably better than digital versions. Brought to life on wax
A fantastic album and release. Love the smoky vinyl and sounds crispy.
Yes I concur with other review , sounds ace - lp12 at120eb
This ACR album caught me by surprise, I'm really enjoying it. The pressing quality is immaculate and the album art and smokey-coloured vinyl is very, very cool.
