The concept of live electronic music has always been a troubling beast.
After all, given the essentially structured, studio-based nature of the medium how is it possible to flex, to evolve for different audiences on a nightly basis?
Well, The Acid seem to manage it. A trio – Adam Freeland, Ry X and Steve Nalepa – the three piece released their debut album 'Liminal' earlier this year.
With warm reviews still coming in, the three piece have stuck together a full UK tour for September. Expect free-flowing electronics, with Ry X promising total freedom: "It’s like painting before you know what you are painting. You’re stuck in the process before you’ve got an idea of what you’re making. The beauty of that is complete freedom."
Opening with a set at Wales' Festival No. 6, the trio then hit Manchester for a show at the Deaf Institute. The Acid will then perform at London's Oval Space venue, before hitting Brighton on September 11th for a show at the Haunt.
Tickets are on sale now.
The Acid have confirmed the following shows:
September
6 Portmeirion Festival No.6
8 Manchester Deaf Institute
10 London Oval Space
11 Brighton The Haunt
