Pye Corner Audio presents his debut for the label with 2 EPs of Acid touched live jams. The main electronic project of Martin Jenkins, here he detours from his on-going journey of the mysterious foggy soundtrack inspirations and fragments of techno, here adding deep, dark 303 fuelled experiments, clearly aimed at dark dancefloors.
After decades of experience working in London recording studios, his recent time near the South Coast has born incredible fruition, with releases on a who’s who of electronic labels – Ghost Box, Type, Ecstatic and Lapsus – that showcased a fragility of electronics, mixing Radiophonic and Library sounds, touches of post punk aesthetics and the deep pulse of the 4/4, Jenkins (aka The Head Technician) has offered a series of timeless albums over the past decade and more, including the much heralded Black Mill Tape series.
Recorded while the world was in lockdown, these EPs update Jenkins moody, retro-futuristic sound with a clear love of Acid House that can be traced back to halcyon raves of his youth.
The sparse sounds and spatial dub are all there, the favoured stripped back collection of equipment were pulled even further to be just the crucial Roland RE-501 (Space Echo), Roland TR-06 and TR-08 drum machines, the audio alchemy of the Make Noise Stada and the all-important Cyclone TT-303.
Mostly recorded live to reel-to-reel, then bounced back at half speed, lightly edited and transposed down an octave, the murky acidtronics join Pye Corner’s signature audio visual meets vintage touch.
From the pure club acid trax of opener Dust Acid to the deep 303 experiments of the aptly titled, Wanna Show U Acid and Magnetic Acid Four, Pye Corner Audio covers the cinematic, the psychedelic, to the dark, the basement throb, as only this master technician dreams.
