An acid house always leaks! Redshape's visits to Running Back are a welcome recurrence and a soothing reminder that techno and house can still come in several shapes and sizes. Related and referring to earlier acid studies on Release Me and to a certain extend on Rise, the masked man continues to find new approaches to the 303 canon with "Acid Leak". True to form, the seasoned producer choses groove over governance, lets batteries leak and strikes a chord or two with old lovers and new votaries of the classic club techno titans of the '90s -- strings included. "Wing Wing" is an exemplary excursion into the special and unmatched Redshape zone that rejoins rock and dental drillers, while "Acid Flow" counterpoints the titles track's opulence with a dub version -- both hit like a streak. The curveball and icing on the cake is "Frantic". Hi-tech-jazz in technique and -soul in attitude, it feels like a late contender to the quintessential Deepest Shade of Techno compilations. Four to the floor!
