Flight Acid / Salicylic Stimulator
A 9 track detroit/u.s. techno album (1h 15m 2s) — released October 23rd 2020 on U-Trax
U-TRAX re-releases some dead honest Detroit-style techno from the early 90s, by Utrecht DJ and producer P.A. Presents (aka Peter Aarsman), who scored a worldwide club hit with Entangled in 1995.
This album mashes together P.A.'s first two, much sought after releases on U-TRAX: Salicylic Acid and Flight Stimulator, and comes on a ltd. edition of 125 CD and as digital download, each with a previously unreleased 10 minute bonus track. All tracks were originally recorded on cassette and have been carefully restored and remastered, sounding better than ever.
The release kicks off with Mesopmorph, an effervescent, nostalgic cut with a deeply buried techno rhythm that eventually takes over in tribal style. Pop is a brilliantly tense and dense track wired up with fizzing synths, chattering claps and haunting effects as well as pending drums, then Theme is cosmic industrial, with powerful hits and metallic sounds married to searching laser synths.
Vera S is classic 90s techno with mad vocal sounds and frantic synth lines darting about the mix, then things grow deeper and more heady on the stripped back intergalactic journey that is Flight Simulator. The timelessness continues on the dancing analogue drums and hi hats of the classic Detroit styled Experiental and A Gasp before Vexillum brings more warm solar winds and molten techno grooves. The album has its apotheosis with the 10 minute bonus track Long Metal, that is a soothing trip into the night.
