Press Release:

Following last year�s first critically acclaimed �Proto Acid� album, the Berlin-based acid house innovator A Guy Called Gerald provides a taster for what to expect from the second instalment.

�Voltar� (Bring Da Rain mix) starts off with shuffling drums and tribal beats, but as the track evolves, haunting sounds and what could be a Native American Indian chanting are gradually introduced. �Voltar� builds and builds, reaching a filtered climax, and, after it breaks down, a tripped out bass lends it a more DJ-friendly direction. The end result is an adventurous take on house music. �Sweet You� is an entirely different matter and shows that Gerald is still adept at crafting deep dance floor grooves. Subtle breaks and understated drums provide the basis for dreamy Motor City chords, a plunging, resonating bassline and old school piano keys. As its title suggests, �Sweet You� is a beautifully evocative piece of music that�ll appeal to the heart, head and feet.

Don�t miss this opportunity to sample the latest experiments from Gerald�s lab!
