New em:t release: '302 acid0005'
news from em:t"what is a television apparatus to a person, who has only to shut their eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through the walls and cause all planetry cities from their dreams to rise from the dust?" Salvador Dali
302 acid0005 (em:t)- Release Date: 23rd May '05
Experience 302 Acid’s debut, a dark, twisted opus from the outer edges of the American psyche. The reborn em:t’s latest release is its most experimental yet, an intense ride brought to you by three electronic innovators from Washington DC.
It’s the creation of Doug Kallmeyer (samples, bass), Justin Mader (samples, projections) and Andrew Reichel (electronics), three men brought together through meetings in DC’s most salubrious hangouts – tattoo parlours, night clubs, art spaces, protest rallies – and a joint love of all things electronic-punk-prog-hardcore-metal-jazz-classical.
em:t fans will be familiar with Andrew Reichel. As alter-ego gel-sol, he released his critically-acclaimed debut gel-sol1104 on the label in late 2004. Now, with 302 Acid, em:t continues to push at the boundaries of intelligent electronic music.
Swirling atmospherics glide over syncopated beats, dubby low-end bass rumbles and roughly-hewn digital soundscapes, producing an end result refined on the many occasions 302 Acid have taken their multi-media, improvisational show live.
It’s still an anxious age, and this is its soundtrack.
Peace & love,
em:t records

'It's unlike any other album around right now and that's just one of the joys of buying it - you'll hear not only something completely different from what you know, but something that is so good, it may change your listening patterns and musical tastes to a much greater degree than you could envisage' Andy G (CD services)
