This is the third time this EP has been repressed, following two sold-out editions in March and May. Darwin Chamber is the man behind it and many other prog classics over the course of his 30-year career, and it was inspired by an acid trip in San Francisco. That plays out in the vibrant colours and 303s of the opener that snake through the hefty drums, while a whispered vocal also repeated the word acid to add to the psychedelic atmosphere. 'Never Coming Down' is more dark and paranoid with a pressurised low end and textured percussion and then the 'The Acid Test' pulls back for a more introspective and roomy sound that allows the soft acidic pulses space to breathe. Two final cuts play around with intensity and tempo to complete a varied EP.
