RELEASE DATE
4/4/2025
During their short but prolific career,
A2L
released two albums, one of which strangely landed on a South African label. They also dropped numerous EPs on labels such as 1st Bass/Big One (home to acts like
Deskee
,
Longsy D
, and
King Bee
) and the German label Force Inc (which hosted artists like
Alec Empire
,
Porter Ricks
, and
Mike Ink
), between 1988 and 1990. While acid house is synonymous with the Roland 303, A2L is unlikely an acid house act. Instead, they stand as one of the finest examples of British psychedelic house music from the late '80s, falling between the likes of
S-Express
,
Funtopia
,
Eon
, and
Acid Angels
. With standout tracks like "Even Though It's Make Believe" and "Come On," A2L delivers infectious grooves over strobelight sample jams. This here is a collection of early and rare underground British psychedelic house gems from 1989, blending the trippy, mind-expanding sounds of machine funk, new beat, industrial/ebm, samplers and turntables techniques, with the birth of acid house wonderland and captures the raw energy of the UK rave scene. This is one testament to the creative freedom and experimental nature of that era. For fans of the burgeoning British psychedelic and acid house scene.
