Leading the charge is the title track, ‘Descending Into Chaos’, an explosive number that kicks off with flanged hats before diving into pounding beats, intense 303 acid lines, and a rolling bassline that will have dancefloors in a frenzy. This is a track that lives up to its name—raw, chaotic energy expertly crafted for peak-time sets.

Next up is the cleverly titled ‘Secret Virus Spreader’, which doesn’t hold back. With unrelenting beats, a hypnotic bassline, warped 303s, and eerie chord stabs, it’s a Deep Tech Acid gem packed with trippy synths that will leave listeners craving more.

Rounding off the EP is ‘Is This Detroit’, a haunting homage to techno’s spiritual home. Deep, trippy 303 lines weave seamlessly with eerie pads to create an atmospheric journey through the darker side of Acid.

The ‘Descending Into Chaos’ EP showcases why Superfreq continues to stand at the forefront of modern Acid House and Deep Tech. With its cutting-edge sound and relentless energy, this release firmly cements Acid Cats as an act to watch.

Originally heralding from Portsmouth, England, the production duo of Richie Collins and James Harrison have been around the house and techno scene from its early inception. James ran a specialist record shop and Richie was promoting an event called Sunday Sessions, this is how they first met. A lifelong friendship was born. 

James had been tinkering with production while at university and got his break with Leftfield’s now highly desirable Offshoot imprint. Recording as Sub funk, James found his way into the record boxes of Laurent Garnier, Mr C and Billy Nasty. Meanwhile, Richie continued to DJ regularly for various events and pirate radio stations such as; Point-Blank FM.

After a while, James hooked back up with Richie in 2021 and the pair immediately gelled like never before. They formed Acid Cats, a heavily 303-influenced sound with a modern take armed with a stack full of tracks in the offing the duo is looking to establish a live act in 2022.

“Diode” is a great continuum of the EP; the disposition of this track means business from the beginning with a deep and bouncy bassline. Acid Cats, once again, get squelchy with the TB throughout this piece. An impeccable choice of elements with all the right decisions made on the reverb used to build a piece that will paint any dancefloor with the mood this track projects.

They said about this release “Can’t wait for this to be released on Analytic, 4 tracks we’re really pleased with…4 tracks of weapons-grade acid.”
