HOPE, The First Fragment

by SoundEngine

supported by

Jetfire Prime What a superb album. I've had to really take my time before reviewing it because it has so many complex elements that I felt I really needed to get my head around it before writing anything. It's constantly twisting, turning and heading off in surprising directions. It's epically cinematic yet surprisingly intimate in equal measure. This is a real sonic journey and I urge you to take the first step. Favorite track: ShadowKind.

Landing on the more chill/ambient end of the ACY spectrum, this EP of tracks, some hauntingly beautiful, some chillingly menacing, is a love letter to some of the many influences ACY wears upon his sleeves. FoxPuppy

Race Day: Cerberus 3000 (Killing Time)

The more high energy, Outrunny of the Race Day tracks, this takes the vibe of the Breakfast In Daytona, fills up the tank and slams down the pedal. With a throbbing bassline, driving beat, and that unmistakable ACY wail, this is just what you need to get you over the finish line. FoxPuppy
