This was very much my kind of genre and era, and I had a miserable 3. Upside though was that I got the 3rd one in about 2 seconds, though needed a little more for the mix name. Edit - Also really kicking myself for not getting the last one.
every kid right now believe me is using the 90 acid house and acid tracks, every fucking kid born after 1999 believe me. I film and see it in the young techno scene through all the cities in germany. Its in even though they have never lived it through. Sometimes I m mad but also very happy i can go through my childhood again, when my sis played it.
There’s the vibe of the times baked into these tracks now. It’s like when you listen to the Byrds, or The Clash - you feel the 60’s and the 70’s. The 90’s is the same. Anyone making techno now is trying to recreate those times - but you just can’t.
It's not a good synth, it's mostly a little crap. Its commercial disaster made it cheap and available for the « ghetto guys». Using it with other sequencers, adding many effects and inventing a new minimal style of music made it what it became. It's a crap machine like many others, that had the chance to fall in the right hands at the right time. It's not Roland that did that. We can thank them for not to being afraid of selling bad instruments, so we can afford them, or for building a so limited machine that it's gonna push creativity to compensate. But our gratitude will stop there : it's still a little creepy box.
I would disagree that it's mostly crap. I think its sound is interesting and useful. I think that it became beyond extremely trendy to the point of nausea. I think it could still be used in modern music If you knew how to tweak it without sounding cheesy generic like 99% of the music that used it. Thankfully the recent clones can do everything the original did in a blind A/B test. Including the less than $100 used meh-ringer.
90s was the best era of music in general, I think. Especially electronic music. That's when it started exploding into 10 million genres and the exploration of sounds.
Chris Liberator is the most positive vibe DJ that you could ever meet, it is really nice that the mainstream is starting to recognize who he is and what he has done for the Techno and Rave culture, Jerome Hill ------ Follow the leader!!! 😁
Maybe tell her be glad you aren't in the habit of buying bunches of old synths and drum machines. Vinyl is 1/100th the price ;) So yeah, maybe moot buying an 303 and have _her_ downsell _you_ to a bunch of old 303-based 90s Techno vinyls
These videos are quite good fun. I have absolutely no idea who any of these people are, nor any of the music featured, but it's also so wonderfully esoteric: They all live in some quaint kind of underground music world which means jack to me.
I love acid, I love these kind of records, I've annoyed my spouse with these records, my 303 and 808 are prized possessions, and I knew ZERO of these tunes. There's just soooo much good acid, it's incredible! What a great episode! Moar please!!
Absolute masterpiece. I heard it back in the day in the 90's on MTV (remember when they played music?), completely reconfigured my teenage mind then. And it's still mindmelting. Genius.
Ain’t gonna lie I would of killed this test back in the early to mid 2000’s but now in my 50’s the memory banks ain’t charged up like that anymore 😁 my hats off to this group 👍🏾👍🏾
Jerome Hill should have been allowed the first one IMO and that should be a rule going forward that you can pull it off your shelf if you have it. If someone was sat there and asked "what's this tune" he would be able to give them an answer, so not giving him the point is just being grim. When you buy records its so hard to know the track names, it's relies on a more graphic/visual memory ability to pull them out of the bag or off the shelf vs using CDJs where you need to know the titles. edit- thanks for the content though I love these videos
Drawn in by the cool beautiful woman in the thumbnail I won't lie... and now I have a new favourite channel! Great to spend this time with cool, passionate, knowlegable music heads! Great idea and execution, thanks!
Emmanuel Top Tone is the Holy Grail, and Sytem 7 Alphawave Plastikman RMX is the Holy Hand Grande. Acid Techno is the greatest invention in Electronic Music, damn i love it so much. Duckbumps ahm Goosbumbs.😜🥳🤯
That was really just the tip of the iceberg, that whole 80-90s acid era had so many bangers and amazing artists: DRAX aka Thomas P. Heckmann, the late Andreas Gehm, Acrid Abeyance, Robert Armani, Mike Ink, Acid Junkies, Phuture ... I could go on for hours
Chris - the king of acid techno! That was one of the more challenging blind tests, I have them all but cant believe I didn't pick the Acid Junkies and Ultrahigh tunes. I also now have Birdman and Tone stuck in my head so it is time to put them on! Excellent video, I loved this one
When they do the techno and trance ones, I’ve often heard the tracks before but have no idea what they are. So it’s nice to learn track ids to tracks I have memories of.
Not being a DJ I only know the rhythm and beat that I was bouncing around to on my caffeine addled brain back in the 90s at city club or special gigs, and sometimes out in the forests in Tasmania. The amount of effort that went into those affairs was amazing and more a collaboration than a money spinner.
It's true, really wasn't always easy to get your hands on those banger vinyls. Btw. I could easily think of like 50 more really important 303 tracks! We need a sequel episode^^
this series isn't really about just listing which are the "50 more really important 303 tracks" or tracks of whatever genre - that would be too easy for the people to guess; it's a quiz of their knowledge, not a best of list.
I read one time (I think in Future Music magazine) that one of the unique features of the 303 (besides all of the others) is the way the sequencer steps/bends to the next note in shorter time than most sequencers.
Great era of vinyl collecting. I nailed "Bang the Acid" by Damon Wild/Tim Taylor - made me immediately say "B-b-bang the BAAWX!" I nailed Woody McBride's "Birdman". And I nailed Mihon "Ongaku 3" from the Secret Life of Trance Compilation. I give myself a solid 3 out of 10. Not bad for a west coast Vancouver guy in Canada. I dare you guys to drop something from Exist Dance (California) or from X-Drone or Off and Gone (Vancouver) - you would stump any European DJ for sure!
I look forward to my usual 1 or 0 out of 10!
😂
Haha, music mad and sometimes 2 if lucky 🫠
@@olliefuture Yep, think 2 and a half was my best ever score on any of these! 😁

@benwu7980 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 well played sir. I was switching between genres like crazy in 95, got 1.. happy with that. 👊🏻
90s Techno is 1000x better than today's techno. Prove me wrong!
What is todays techno? Its all taken from the 90's... prove you...right

Fuck yes it is

Public Energy - Three O'Three is one of the very best tunes of the era, not just 303 tunes. Absolute classic!
yes.
Massive tune, still hear it in some of Dave Clarke sets.
so happy DJ's like Dave Clarke still drop it sometimes !
Still very playable. All time evergreen track.
Timelesss banger indeed
Love Chris liberator, haven’t seen him in a lifetime!
TB303 is the best music instrument ever invented! Thank you Roland and thank you Telekom for this great blind test! Awesome tracks.
se mai avessi un figlio lo chiamerei TB303
LOL
and to think roland released it thinking it was be a bass guitar replacement!

I could Stay Up Forever watching this one.... x
Once again I sit here watching Blind Test with Discogs open buying 12 inches..Fucking love it..
Cheers from Australia for the upload.
I remember seeing Chris Liberator and some of his labelmates in 1998 in Los Angeles at a rave. I was 17 years old. He simply killed it! Great times.
Amazing!!! Please make Part 2. 303 forever ❤
Love how this series is produced and edited. Feels like early internet
90s was the best era of music in general, I think. Especially electronic music. That's when it started exploding into 10 million genres and the exploration of sounds.

Always a special day when a new Blind Test comes out - so much new old music to listen to!
After every episode I have to find a new excuse to tell my wife, why I have to buy yet another bunch of old vinyl....
There need to be reason?
I am so in trouble!
😂

You don't have to.

Thanks for having Rachel, Jerome & Chris, a true pioneers of UK scene!
Was a Blast!
brilliant to see those 3 london legends; chris, jerome and rackitt! nice episode, acid techno forever. 💚
I have 5 of these records! I hit 5! Thank you for including a total banger like '303'! I remember that packing the floor back in the day 👍

I am, job.
Legends, that's who they are :)
I freaking love this so much!! These tracks are classics that bring back so many great memories. Props to all the DJs and party people!!
Public Energy still 1 out of 10 best 303‘s lines ever!
You guys should do a Dub Techno blind test next. Such an underappreciated and forgotten genre.
agreeed
Tough one to guess, though
@@zerobjectMaurizuo Basic Channel Chain Reaction Rhythm and Sound is more than half of it.
@@embersandashfunny but no
@@agenteagresivo 90s dub techno?
Supergloss is positively stunning and everyone has top energy
Public Energy: Three O’Three still sounds so fresh! BANGER
When they both said it's a great "going to the toilet" track because it's so long 😅 - they've been around the block!
*Love this!*
Hi Wanderlust
Birdman, who can resist that bassline. So simple, so great.
Potrei rivederlo all'infinito, top!!!!!!
Feel free 😉

303 reason to replay this!
supergloss' set on HOR is one of the best. glad to see more of a presence!
One of the best series on UA-cam.
Mihon and bang the acid to this day absolutely blow me away, thanks again EBs, 30 episodes 303, many many more to come 🤞
Supergloss (almost) stealing the show. I'm in love 😍. Great episode as always. UA-cam's finest 💗
This is one of my faves & out of them all covers the tunes I used to play. Acid magic
Best music in the best century for me... love to hear my love
Ongaku - Mihon is the masterpiece of the selection here. There is no other acid record like it.
So eerie and erratic, amazing record. Was that on the Trance Europe Express comps or the Secret Life of Trance ones? Can’t remember. Masterpiece!
@@ExpectResistancesecret life of trance…first few compilations…just mind blowing 😊
Absolute masterpiece.
I heard it back in the day in the 90's on MTV (remember when they played music?), completely reconfigured my teenage mind then. And it's still mindmelting.
Genius.
Heard it for the first time through this video and I'm blown away. What a nasty acid track!
@@ExpectResistance It was originally on the German label POD Communications
Jerome Hill one of my Top 10 Artist's 🤙 Acid and Bleep Techno best Combo
Great 90´s Acid Tunes ! ! !
Ain’t gonna lie I would of killed this test back in the early to mid 2000’s but now in my 50’s the memory banks ain’t charged up like that anymore 😁 my hats off to this group 👍🏾👍🏾
I got 'alpha wave' in half a second. What a tune!!! Still sounds great
it annoys me that hawtin doesn't make singles in the old style anymore
Same here 🙂Just that first sound. Bam!
Perfectly content watching Supergloss wrinkle her nose in confusion, what a darlin' 😍
Wow great to see Liberator and Hill here
One time, someone went behind the decks and tested Chris Liberator's pH level with a litmus paper. It registered -14.
Hahaha, I love this comment so much. Chris is a legend musically and personally.
lol...
Baking soda checks under it's bed at night for Chris Liberator.
Mint chemistry joke, loool.
As Acid as it gets. The maestro. 💣♥️
we love you SUPERGLOSS
Jerome Hill should have been allowed the first one IMO and that should be a rule going forward that you can pull it off your shelf if you have it.
If someone was sat there and asked "what's this tune" he would be able to give them an answer, so not giving him the point is just being grim.
When you buy records its so hard to know the track names, it's relies on a more graphic/visual memory ability to pull them out of the bag or off the shelf vs using CDJs where you need to know the titles.

So true

First track was Acid Junkies.
Yes! You know what you are talking about! The names you name I feel belonged here more than most of the initial 4 or 5 in this series.
And all the amazing stuff on Noom Records!!
I learn of so many classics this way, thank you
Excellent, i thoroughly enjoyed that.. Thanks
Make a part 2 3 4 5 6 etc.
This is great.
Love these blind tests and the tracks they pick for it! Keep 'em coming. Much appreciated!
Really enjoyed that trip down memory lane, thanks! XO
WOOHOO!!! I got 1, Another great episode, more acid please and some more acid trax too.
wonderfull as always, can't wait for the next one.
Big Respect... this is pure talent
Glad to hear Emmanuel Top in there at the very end :-)
Now we talking my era of tunes and going out ..big shout to the Orbit folks! 😁🤗👌
