Acid Test 11

• Track Listing

On Acid Test 11, Tin Man, AKA Johannes Auvinen, arrives on a seamless pairing with Manchester production duo Jozef K and Winter's Son. On the title track, Tin Man's acrobatic 303 no longer has to do the melodic heavy lifting - the Mancunians provide a sturdy yet plaintive piano base that allows a duet of acid lines to cut through the heady atmosphere. Erika toughens things up considerably with her "Fates Unknown" remix, stripping things back to a creepy, jacking core. "Pendle By Night" underlines the trio's propensity for widescreen heft with an epic, emotional tone.
