ACID JESUS – ACID JESUS

Following the title of the classic Ecstasy Club record - be it a direct influence or merely a
coincidence - Acid Jesus was the first of many collaborations between Roman Flügel and
Jörn Elling Wuttke.
Situated in Germany’s then blistering techno scene and especially a mirror of Frankfurt at
the time, the early recordings are also a feedback loop to what was happening in the UK and
the USA before and at that very time. With many definitions and interpretations of techno
already in place, and while its triumphal procession slowly geared itself into exhaustion,
Flügel and Wuttke succeeded with their own and unique take on it, that owned as much to
Underground Resistance and the Belleville Three as it did to Sven Väth and Andrew
Weatherall.
Depicting the booster detonation of what was to become the holy label trinity of Playhouse,
Klang and Ongaku, this is a collection of tracks and experiments in sound that won’t sound
dated, yet classic, mesmerizing and eternal.
Jesus loves the acid and vice versa.
