Itโs hard to overstate the all-time classic status of Earth Leakage Tripโs โPsychotronic EPโ. Stamped with the fortuitous catalogue number Shadow 1, the EP is best loved for its foundational highlight โNo Ideaโ, a template-firming collage of samples from a novelty record and the film Poltergeist, set to oozing subs, gull squawks and thee nattiest bleep rhythm of its time.
Itโs a sterling example of the shift from original, utopian acid house of โ87 to a more fucked embrace of the dark side by โ91, balancing dummy-sucking naรฏvete with a grimmer UK edge that would come to infiltrate rave music over the coming years, perhaps reflecting a paranoiac mindset that came hand-in-hand with the comedowns of guzzling high grade eccies.
No doubt itโs a sort of turning point for โ90s UK dance music, precipitating reams of darkside hardcore and brooding dance music in its wake. Letโs be honest, the other two tracks arenโt that great, but โNo Ideaโ more than makes up for them.
