Review:
This series of remixes and edits embraces the original spirit of acid house without sounding like a pastiche of the late 80s musical explosion. Spektro's remix of "Das Minimal Fonk" features abstract percussion and wired riffs underscored by dark claps, while Carone's own version of "Accepting Each Other" sees dreamy, crystalline synths combined with a visceral, grinding bass. The rest of the release doesn't boast the same level of mixing and matching, but it will score highly with DJs. In particular, the throbbing, brooding bass of "Halopolis" and Spektro's take on "Stellar Mission", which veers from minimal house into one of the wildest acid freakouts this side of DJ Pierre, are both sure to strike a chord.
