Entagled In Vines vinyl

While the artist has branched out onto several different labels dealing in cold, mechanical techno, Acronym's main output has come through Sweden's excellent Northern Electronics imprint. That in itself is already plenty of reason to consider this producer. It's no coincidence that he's been called up by Spain's Semantica label to deliver a new LP, and we couldn't ask for anything better. Entangled In Vines is an intricate collection of tracks that span across the entire techno realm, from slow-burning hypnotics to high-tech warehouse blasters. "Enter" is the perfect example of this man's style, a largely beatless tune that still drags plenty of movement across the groove, and "Getting Closer" quickly ups the tempo with a fine layer of bass and kicks. "Escape" transports us across a deep techno wormhole, and "Wrapped" delivers Acronym's inimitable swarm of hollow tones in the same vein as artists like Donato Dozzy. There is just so much quality on this LP that we think it merits album of the week - highly recommended!
