John Tejada and Justin Maxwell Release “I’ve Got Acid (On My Brain)” EP on Acid Camp Records

/in /by

Duo John Tejada and Justin Maxwell team up for the latest release out on Acid Camp Records (ACR), an EP entitled “I‘ve Got Acid (On MyBrain)” that came out today on both 12″ and digital formats.

The opening track, “I’ve Got Acid (On My Brain)” is a mind-bending wavetable freakout, the likes of which Tejada and Maxwell have been striving to do for years. Using a vintage EMS vocoder to create an original vocal sample, this track is bright, playful, and vivacious.

Screen Shot 2016-01-27 at 9.09.08 AMRemember that one scene in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas where Hunter S. Thompson goes on a monologue about his heyday during the 1965 San Francisco acid wave to Jefferson Airplane’s Somebody To Love playing in the background, and a sea of hippies are dancing in slow-mo under a huge disco ball? That’s basically how Acid Camp Volume 7 went down, except substitute Jefferson Airplane with three hours of Mike Servito’s mad rad acid house. Read more
