Acustic - Welcome

'Welcome', from the third member of Future 3/System, Jesper Skaaning (aka Acustic), has been anticipated for some time. The
last time he released a full solo album was 1998's 'Star Quality', and we are therefore very proud to announce Acustic's third
album, this time released on Rump Recordings. On 'Welcome', we once again encounter the strongly melodic approach to
Electronica which has been Skaaning's trademark, both as a solo artist and as a part of Future 3, for many years. Here,
Skaaning presents us with the irresistible riffs and melodies which we might expect from the producer, only this time presented
in a slightly more experimental sound universe; in contrast to the previous Acustic records, where the tracks were often built
around repetitive loops or based on riffs instead of actual melodies, the new material seems more complete, mature and edgy,
taking the Acustic listening experience to the next level.
With his sense of harmony and consciously minimalist approach, Skaaning constructs a sound which is forthcoming without
trying too hard to please. Taking influences from Electronica, Dub and the more melodic side of Techno, 'Welcome' will appeal
to fans of the now defunct Neo Ouija label, Morr Music or Expanding. Welcome back to the world of Acustic...
