Unreleased Works: Volume 1 Acid Dreams vinyl

James Bernard has a long and winding history in electronic music production. His story is intertwined with that of seminal UK techno and IDM label Rising High, where he released much of his early 90s work under his own name and as Influx. He's released intermittently ever since, cropping up on various labels and in 2019 linking up with A Strangely Isolated Place. His strain of synapse tickling ambient, electronica and techno sits well on the label - so much so he's now been drafted in for a two volume archive dig which may just introduce a whole new crowd to the mighty fine talents of a true techno believer. Unreleased Works: Volume 1 flies under the banner of Acid Dreams, but don't be fooled - this is a varied affair that uses the 303 sparingly in favour of a handsome assortment of plush synth voices bent to all manner of sonic duties.
