NEW (OLD) STYLES FROM THE MAN BEHIND THE THUNDER ZONE ENT. LOGO, THE ONE AND ONLY ZANE REYNOLDS AKA SFV ACID. HIS NEW RECORD ON PPM IS SOME OF HIS EARLIEST RECORDED WORK MADE YEARS AGO AS AN UNDERAGE KID JUST FUCKING EXPLORING THE GAME.

TEENAGE BEDROOM ACID FROM DEEP IN THE VALLEY. SICK HIGH SCHOOL HOUSE WITH AN EAR FOR MELODY. WHATEVER YOU WANNA SAY MAN, THIS SHIT WILL BE TREASURED FOR YEARS TO COME. SOMETHING SLIGHTLY TWEAKED AND HARD TO PLACE, A CERTAIN FEELING: THIS IS SFV ACID IN A NUTSHELL.

ALSO MAN DO NOT SLEEP ON ZANE’S ARTWORK. ONE OF MY FAVORITES.

MY HOMETOWN OF MILWAUKEE HAS A STORIED HISTORY WHEN IT COMES TO AGGRESSIVE HARDCORE TECHNO. WHAT STARTED IN THE 90′S WITH THE FABLED DROP BASS NETWORK CONTINUED ON INTO THE NEW MILLENNIUM THROUGH MORE EXPERIMENTAL LABELS LIKE ADDICT AND ZOD, PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF RAVE MUSIC AND CULTURE THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH.

ALTHOUGH THE SALAD DAYS OF THIS MOVEMENT ARE OVER, LOCAL MILWAUKEE LABEL RADIO GRAFFITI IS KEEPING THE DREAM ALIVE WITH A CONSTANT BARRAGE OF REALLY SICK RECORDS. STYLES RANGE FROM LO-FI GABBER TO CHIPTUNE TO ACID TO BREAKCORE, BUT A HIGH QUALITY CONTROL AND FOCUS RUNS THROUGHOUT THE LABEL’S ENTIRE CATALOG.

OWNER TYLER ST CLAIR MAKES MUSIC UNDER THE STAGEDIVER AND DISPYZ HANDLES AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR SOME OF THE LABEL’S BEST RELEASES. THIS SHIT WILL ALWAYS HOLD A PLACE IN MY HEART AND I’M PSYCHED TO SEE KIDS DOING IT THE RIGHT WAY. NEVER STOP RAVING AND RAGING PEOPLE!

SFV ACID IS ONE OF THE SICKEST IN LA, NO QUESTION. CREATIVE ACID VIBES – SWAGGED OUT AND AT TIMES XPERI-MENTAL. THIS GUY KNOWS HIS ROOTS BUT HAS AN EYE FOR THE FUTURE. WHEN I RAN INTO HIM IN LINE AT AN OMAR S SHOW IT WAS THEN THAT I KNEW HE WASN’T FUCKING AROUND. SFV ACID IS HOLDING IT DOWN 4 THE LEFT COAST. CHECK OUT SOUNDS @ THE DOT COM.
