There’s plenty to get excited about with the emergence of Swedish deep techno operator Acronym, as has been demonstrated on the laid bare, haunting twelves in the Dimensional Exploration series and an appearance on Northern Electronics. This latest offering is no different, dancing a fine line between ambient drone abandon and sunken techno with arresting results. “Pelagic” may pile on plenty of drums but they’re shaped so as not to disturb the thick blanket of pad that hangs over the track. “Photic” meanwhile works on a stepped kick pattern that punches through a murk of hazy, distant synths, forever caught in a hypnotic loop. This may be strung-out and repetitive, but it’s the finest example of how to make that approach work.
