Me, Spank, and Herb made ACID Track in Spank's mom's living room while we were still in school, and at that time none of us had yet to have ever met Marshal. When I did finally meet Marshall Ron Hardy had already been playing Acid Track for months and Marshall even said that he had knew about the track and even heard Ron drop it. But now he's saying that he produced it? I'm very very hurt and disappointed that he would say such thing, I thought that we were friends and I also looked up to him as a mentor. So I'm totally lost and utterly confused right now and not at all sure what the motivation would be for him to even make such a claim. I've reached out to him and my management are in the process of reaching out to Electronic Beats about this situation and the inclusion of such an obviously fraudulent claim by Marshall Jefferson in this video. Just a little research would have put them onto the falsities of his statement. This is the history of a music and a movement, let's please get it right.
@DJ PIerre All vinyl records we have (Trax and Whos That Beat) says produced and mixed by Marshall Jefferson on the label. Online sources shows the same information. Discogs, Beatport, Wikipedia etc. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_Tracks www.discogs.com/release/1949-Phuture-Acid-Tracks www.beatport.com/artist/marshall-jefferson/4627 clone.nl/item31002.html www.insomniac.com/music/from-the-crate-phuture-acid-tracks/ Plus there were interviews with Marshall before in which which he says the same. Guess there is a little confusion between producer and composer / writer.
This is the history of a music and a movement, let's please get this right." I completely agree with you DJ Pierre, how could I or anyone else do anything but believe what you say, but it's also understandable that they made this "mistake" in this vid due to the information out there. I hope it gets sprted out to your liking and I wish you amd your co-writers the best! Great music btw!
@@djpierrephuture Just a question: Did Armando's Confusion on Westbrook Record hit the vinyl press earlier than Acid Trax? I know from one of yours or Spanky's interviews that Acid Trax was played by Ron Hardy from reel to reel until it was pressed on vinyl. Imo it would be great if you, Adonis, Mike Dunn, Chris Westbrook and Mike Wilson will do the next acid episode!
@@MrDahlbacken Yes I've had a minute to think about it and you're right, I absolutely agree with you and my sincere apologies to @ElectronicBeats. TBT for me it's just super annoying and hurtful when you've done something and spent your life on a journey that's based on what you've created just to have certain ones lay claim to it, or devalue the uniqueness of it, or try to put confusion and doubt on it's origins specially when there never was any before. In recent years people have gone over and beyond to try and bring mass confusion into the creation of Acid House music and the sound Acid. Spank has passed on now so it's just me left to speak on it and I'm just not gonna allow it to go on any longer. As soon as someone dies people start talking and putting a spin on things that where long a go established facts. But yes I'm definitely triggered about this topic as it's a very emotion space for me for a lot of reasons. It's actually only because of Spanky that I had even started making music, this was his dream and he begged me to do it. I had honestly thought about quitting when he passed away not realizing that I pushed so hard to be successful in this (his dream) because I ended up making it and he didn't. he was so proud of what we created that it didn't matter that he didn't personally reach a high level of success. When people tried to make him feel bad about it he would just tell them "well I discovered Pierre and look at him!" So it was for that reason that I kept pushing, I guess now I can rest but I will not allow anyone to appropriate what we did.
Is this the real Pierre? Because I could not believe that such an eminence would need to make a perfunctory complaint like this. He wouldn't need to clarify or to prove anything; his remarkable legacy speaks for himelf. Plus, it's quite obvious, at least for me, what Marshall meant by the word "producer" in the context of those years. I guess pretty much everyone in the Acid House scene knows that the true brain behind "Acid Trax" is no other than Pierre. Marshall, far from boasting, simply gave a historical fact about his presence in that release.
I was just a kid back in the 80's, but I remember every weekend spending the night at my friend's house. We used to stay up really late and found this "pirate radio station' that would play a lot of acid house, techno, etc... of course, we had no idea what the stuff was called back then. MTV never played any of it, nor did you hear it on any "normal" radio stations. To this day, electronic music is my passion. Those experiences from when I was a kid helped push me to learn music production in college. I've been making electronic music (as a hobby) for about 20+ years now. It would be great if I could get on a nice electronic music label.. but unfortunately, these days it seems to be all about 'who you know'. Regardless, I'm not going to give up my passion ever.
This episode has such a hell of a lineup. Oliver Bondzio (1/2 of Hardfloor) is one of my favorite electronic musicians of all time. old school acid is such a fucking amazing genre. I ❤️ Acid!!!!!! 😀
Been breaking into warehouses since 1982 doing small illegal events with space for about 300 people.. 5 years later Acid house and detroit techno arrived. A year later on October 30th 1988 i did an illegal party ia London called Stomach Basher. We had space for 800 people...3000 people turned up instead. I was absolutely shitting my pants with panic as to how am i gonna cater for this amount of people. Even though i had more people outside the party went down really well. 2 tracks from this post i played, Armando land of confusion and especially Charles B Lack of love, my goodness ravers lost their minds when i dropped them , Beautiful days of music where the urgency to dance back then was unseen even unheard of. Best days of my life. This year I'll be 59 and i love this music even more than when it first came out lol.. Great post and great concept vibe .. Subscribed 👍❤🎶❤️
acid house is to electronic music what punk was to rock music. even the old acid classics still have the energy, the funk, the untamed and extatic vibe that is often missing in current electronic music. thank you for existing, acid house!
@@duckacid industrial as we know it today was started by members of Godflesh so it's origins are the metal scene. Unless we are talking about Throbbing gristle who were hippies into creating art music they certainly were not punks.
The first time I came into contact with old school house, and acid was when GTA: San Andreas came out I was around 11/12 years, it changed my life because introduced me to a whole bunch or artists that I came to love like Mr.Fingers, Todd Terry and 808 State, one of the songs that marked me was the one and only, Move Your Body by Marshall Jefferson, it made me wanna dance and jump with excitement while I sang along with the lyrics, this pave my way into liking other branches of the genre like techno and uk garage. Already managed to watch live some legends like Jeff Mills, Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Solomun, Kerry Chandler and St. Germain, I hope one day I get to rave at one of his sets too, thank you all so much for these series.
This is one of the best episode of the series, and Luke Vibert's priceless face at 12:54 says it all.. Not only through the track selection but also through the artists who participated. You can tell they lived through a music-defining era, partly enabled by the TB-303, and have a strong dedication to it. Would love to hear more stories from that time, you can tell there is a comradery despite the drama. Long live acid.
The 303 just does something to me. Always has. Always will. If you know, you know. Best Blind test yet, more please 🙂 Smiley faces used to mean something. Charles B............... one of my all time faves. Big Up EB.
Absolute treasure trove of acid history from these great guests. These men lived it and love it with a passion! Great episode. Could listen to them speak about their history for hours and hours.
Genius idea to gather a bunch of producers to talk about this music, as opposed to pure dj's. Once again it felt like sitting with a bunch of mates listening to music, except these mates are legends 🙂
So glad they included Phuture - Slam - my favourite 303 line of all. My son recently described it as sounding like alien lasers - he wasn't a fan (unlike me!)
Jesus this was fun. Distracted me from work for an hour😆 Got Slam in the first second . Same with Bam Bam. Gonna be pumping that Phortune today for sure! Hard trance inspired by 808 that's news . Love to all so so good House music all life long 💗🤩 I got 5/10
Tyree Cooper is one of my biggest favorites. 🙏 His track "Love" and those lyrics still have a very important message for everybody, especially since Loco Dice played it in the end of his "The Lab" mix.
OMG! Marshall Jefferson! What a legend! OK, so I was a pre-teen when I finally realized how much I liked electronic music. I liked groups like Depeche Mode and The Pet Shop Boys. First Marshall Jefferson track I heard was The Pet Shop Boy's - Being Boring (Marshall Jefferson Remix). I didn't know who the guy was but he taught me what a proper remix should sound like. He deconstructed Being Boring and gave it a new interpretation that sounded nothing like the original... but sounded like the original. Weird but you have to listen to the original and his remix to understand. All I knew anything Marshall Jefferson produced or remixed was going to be good. I didn't have to listen to it. I just purchased it. Oh, his maxi-singles where plastered with remixes. Telekon Electronic Beats... thanks for having this legend. I would hope you guys do an interview of him.
Tyree Cooper - absolute legend to me, great to see him! And I believe Luke is right about Gerald being the core to Flow Coma - true acid classic, if you've never listened to it in full do it now. Great video thanks!
Really amusing to watch these legends play this challenge, which is a game and, at the same time, a lecture about our beloved electronic music history. For example, having Mr. Jefferson himself speaking about former Acid House productions (Sleezy D in this case), way before "Phuture: Acid Tracks", the one that most people mistakenly think is the very first.
It's hardly a challenge! Even my mom knows them all!! 😆😉 Unless someone has a particularly bad memory, there's no reason not to get 10/10 and all within the first few seconds.

I want a six-hour lecture series from Luke Vibert all about acid.
Don't we all ...
I prefer the Chicago acid demi gods more....
Sadly some of them already have passed away like Armando Gallop, James Martin and Spanky....
and jungle
@Tont Coles you ain't lying pimp juice🤘😎🤘
Luke was preaching to the choir🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤😉😉😉💯💯💯🕺🕺🕺
Love me some "a C i D"👨🚀🤓
Apparently he loves it
Give Luke Vibert his own show.
Luke Vibert is a national treasure and must be protected at all costs!
Even more than that he is a Cornish Legend!
Couldn’t agree more
Vibert is the best!
Totally agree. What he doesn't know about music is probably not worth knowing.
True
I got 3 correct and I'm 25, pretty proud of that lol
I had the pleasure to smoke a cigarette with Ceephax Acid Crew some months ago in Utrecht, what an acid legend!! ❤️❤️

This series rocks, and this edition is the perfect introduction to the wonders of 80s acid house. And now, everyone uses a smiley every day. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
I need more stoned Luke Vibert in my life. Honestly, I could just sit and watch these guys talk shit about the late 80s scene. Post that video up.
Kudos to whomever booked the participants for this episode
Has to be the best episode so far...What a fine team you have assembled
Unbelievable casting!
Luke Vibert is one of my all time favorite artists😍
Yeah he's got so much interesting stuff to say too!
This episode has such a hell of a lineup. Oliver Bondzio (1/2 of Hardfloor) is one of my favorite electronic musicians of all time. old school acid is such a fucking amazing genre. I ❤️ Acid!!!!!! 😀

what an intense episode! such a good selection plus a big concentrated knowledge, WOW! 🖤
Yes Luke, I look forward to listening to your TR-707 playlist with sexy vocals
"I produced I Lost Control in 1984"....What the...wow.
‘Lack of Love’ is absolutely out of this world.
said it before, will say it again, these blindtest are the best thing on the internet. much love to every one involved in making these.
Such wholesome programming but got lol at Luke's eyes flaring when he goes to light his spliff :D
50yo has just had his day made by remembering the names to all those tunes within first 20 seconds or so 😁
Omg... i love the Tyree Cooper's tracks so much. Specially his rap vocal!! The best of hip house!!! 😎😎😎😎
Vibert is a true acidhead !
He loves acid
acid house is to electronic music what punk was to rock music. even the old acid classics still have the energy, the funk, the untamed and extatic vibe that is often missing in current electronic music. thank you for existing, acid house!
⬆️⬆️This⬆️⬆️ if there was _any_ music that recaptures the DIY ethos that punk brought to the table, it’s Acid House
I disagree. Industrial is to electronic music what punk was to rock music.

NO IT ISNT
I would more equate punk-metal, acid-techno
Good lord! What a lineup of acid house/techno legends!
Killer tracks too 🤩🤩🤩
exactly what I said to myself 🙌🏼🎵🪄💣🥳
Great panel! Plus some real good tunes. Where is your child / Jesus loves the acid ftw!
Jesus loves the Acid, what a f-ing tune still ✊💥
Finally some House music!
Acid. 😉
Luke Vibert, best on the show so far
Luke Vibert is king of acid !!
Should be on his tombstone: 'He truly snuck out the house' 😄
Tyree! Give that man a big gold medal - one of theGOATS!
Jesus man, he made Sleezy D in 84!!! That insane. What a tune, even now
This is fantastic
Vibert's like the collest guy ever :D
The best is Marshall Jefferson and Tyree Cooper (the producer and super Trooper 🎵😎🤤)❤big love
what a selection !
I did laugh when flow coma came on an all the British guys had like a spiritual revelation and none of the Chicago guys knew it lol
Luke Vibert is a treasure!
I love this time for underground music
Classics Acid tunes from Chicago and Manchester, nice selection.
First time seeing tyree cooper… legend of the scene! 👌👍👏
Aciiiid, thanks for some history.

Shout out to Luke for having the Mike Reid album up there in pride of place. Ugly Duckling is a stone cold banger.
This is and always will be Acid.
The living legends here: Tyree, K-Alexi and Marshall in one show, holy schmokes...
last track, GENE HUNT SO UNDEERRATED LEGEND
Thank You Marshal Jefferson
could listen to these guys talking for hours

Legendary people, legendary music!
Oh hi there ;)
Absolute treasure trove of acid history from these great guests. These men lived it and love it with a passion! Great episode. Could listen to them speak about their history for hours and hours.
Marshall Jefferson is a Legend ! - he produced Ten City...Thats the way love is.....one of the most beauty house tune ever made...
..incredible👍 ..thanks 4 acid🙏😎
For Sure. Best Episode!!!!
Once more , thank u for the education ✊
I love that Luke has a Mike Reid album facing out from his shelving...
Out of maybe the 30 blind tests I've watched, this one was the easiest!
Definitely! Surprised with the obvious choices! 😆
Genius idea to gather a bunch of producers to talk about this music, as opposed to pure dj's. Once again it felt like sitting with a bunch of mates listening to music, except these mates are legends 🙂
Who isn’t a DJ here?
@@ElectronicBeatsTV I mean they are all producers (and famous for it too). On the other hand, there are also dj's who don't produce...
@@ElectronicBeatsTV I don’t DJ but love to produce
@Charles Henderson but you are not in the Blind Test 😉
@@ElectronicBeatsTV Doh!!
Woke up. No work today. Acid house for breakfast 🙂
My favourite episode for a while!
This is such a cool show! Especially the stuff from the early days I like very much. Please continue...!
I love Vibert’s entire catalog. And Ceephax is one of the best live performers if you like acid and hardware. Just so much fun.
So glad they included Phuture - Slam - my favourite 303 line of all. My son recently described it as sounding like alien lasers - he wasn't a fan (unlike me!)
I was 13years old in 1988 ,4 me it was yesterday !! I find 8 at the first second but 2 unknown !! Peace
Luke Vibert is a hero. What a panel though. Fabulous stuff.
Even in the context of musical styles that are not part of my preferences... these blind tests are always a real pleasure guys!
Thanks again 🙂
Loving Lukes I ❤️Acid T-shirt ….🤘
Every track sounds timeless
Great show! Luke Vibert is an encyclopedia of musical knowledge.
Jesus this was fun. Distracted me from work for an hour😆
Got Slam in the first second . Same with Bam Bam. Gonna be pumping that Phortune today for sure! Hard trance inspired by 808 that's news . Love to all so so good House music all life long 💗🤩 I got 5/10
The best yet for me! Acid had a Funk to it and raw energy it’s never lost.
I'm just sitting here feeding all this straight over into UA-cam Music. Add, add, add...
Excellent,I named all of them within 5 seconds. This is the soundtrack of my youth
you have outdone yourself with this episode. this is educational content that will be useful for generations
Lack of love. One of the best track ever. Thanks guys.
Tyree Cooper is one of my biggest favorites. 🙏 His track "Love" and those lyrics still have a very important message for everybody, especially since Loco Dice played it in the end of his "The Lab" mix.
Absolutely the top video of today
Always nice when a new episode pops up🤌🤌🤌
full love
i found acid in 1993 and these are all legends!
Incredible tracks! Outstanding episode ❤️
I’ve lost control was made in 84’???? So ahead of its time
