Hard-working UK producer Chris Moss takes a break from his TB-303 to give us “The Sub”.

Released on Wrong Music’s netlabel, the album is a break from Chris’s usual squelchy acid and 707/909 driven tracks. In fact, “The Sub” sees Chris entering mellow territory (”Up Periscope”) and there’s even a dreamy tune! (”Love Tip”).

But Chris doesn’t completely forget his roots. There’s a nice phatt bassline in “Homecoming”, perhaps the only track with a bit of that acid that Chris is known for.

Of the remaining tracks, “Sub Attack” caught my attention the most, differing from the rest of the mostly mellow-sounding tracks, as it sounds quite ominous and dark.

Overall, a quirky, cheerful album, do look this up if you like Ceephax Acid Crew. A very melodic and soothing (!) acid release - without the squelch.
