- The opening track, "Acid Attack" from one of Stockholm's busiest and brightest young producers, John Dahlback, kicks off with an electro-house rhythm before a bristling bass/synth really starts driving the piece along. An off-key arpeggio soon comes, throwing the listener off by playing a kind of cat-and-mouse game with our senses. The driving, bassy, synth pushes us on with the arpeggio counteracting things to create confusion. This tug of war develops, almost becoming the pattern entirely throughout the track. This track is quite a head-turner and should create a stir inside a club when played out. (6/10)
"Shuffle Attack" has more of a rock feel with its drums on the intro. The addition of metallic-abrasion to the clanging, pipe-beating noise quickly develops the track into a cheeky electro number with stop/start funky kicks. The synthetic-rock vibe is completed by the addition of a warbling synth. All this comes to an brief end with an unnerving, suspense-filled interval which uses psychotic, chord arrangements that just build up until the drums intensify and......bam - we're back into booty-shakin' electro business. Very catchy indeed. (7/10)
The final installment in this package, "Arp Attack" is a fairly straight-up, electro-house beat put alongside a warped bass-synth(again!). Weirded-out elements creep in as dark touches create an apocalyptic feel and things get...murky. Shuddering beats and plenty of hi-end means this is a very busy track. However it still manages to hold on to some portion of a steady groove until the track fizzles out. Not as lively as the second track but useful. (6/10)
