I remember being a 7 year old in ‘87, sitting in my aunts Corolla listening to this new mix tape she just made... wasn’t too impressed with most of it until this came on. Blew my mind... music like this didn’t exist! How’s that crazy sound being made?! Most Australians were listening to Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham. My 17 year old aunt introduced me to the future. Thank you Ang. You might have gone crazy in your 40s and disowned me over my sons Lego. 😬🙄 But I’ll always appreciate you for opening my ears and eyes. 🙏🏻
I'm 47 years old and from the Northside of Chicago. We partied at the Music Box on Michigan and the Warehouse on Randolph and Halsted, Bismark Hotel, Medusas, COD, AKA's, Coconuts, Sauers, LaRay's, Powerhouse, Igloo, Red Dog, Shelter's, Hotel Continental, etc...When this song came on, we slammed danced and left bloody! lol
BBC Radio 6 just played this at 9.28am!! you should by law NOT be allowed to play this tune without warning at that time of that day ,my weetabix went everywhere!!
A micro dot and this when I was 20yrs old blew my mind. I still get the rush and tingle of the high notes, like my bare brain is getting gently caressed from front to back.
THIS is acid...I wonder if you listen to this on acid...do you taste the music....like some say you can taste colors...I am straight edge...never did acid,,,,just wondering....aCID tracks and phuture and dj spanky chicago are great.....
I was 14 when my dad introduced me to the world of acid trax. We were moving house in 2014 and as we were bringing stuff in from the old house to the new one, my dad stumbled across his old cassette collections of the music he listened to in the '80s and 90's when he went to school and university. Stuff he'd forgotten about since CDs and online streaming became more popular. From rap/hip hop to house music to RnB and all types of genres, he found an untitled tape and his curiosity sparked. He put it in the cassette player we still had and lo and behold, acid house music. First track being Phuture's "Your Only Friend" and the track after being a Mike Dunn track. My dad certainly has a great taste of music. He used to tell me things about him moving to a new neighbourhood and he introduced acid house to his classmates at the time in high school, a town which never heard of this type of music before. I was born in 1999 and listening to stuff like this makes me wish I was around to experience the 80s and 90s. But listening to my dad reminisce is all I'm gonna get. 😁
Well I do care, thank you for sharing your story. I was born in the 80s but sometimes wish it had been one or two decades earlier so I could have lived through the golden age of house, techno and wave.
Are you American? Just wondering cause most people in America don't have Dad's into acid house, but in England it's the opposite. Everyone's dad is from the Summer of Love '88.

Here's the story of the first time Acid Tracks was played. Of course it was in my city, CHICAGO! "The guys immediately gave the cut to Ron Hardy, and he played it four times that night at Music Box. “It cleared the floor the first time and second time,” Pierre remembers. “The third time people acted as though he didn't play it a first or second. They acted as though they were hearing this track for the first time, and they were like 'This is hot!' It was as if the music infiltrated every single mind in the Music Box that night because by the fourth time, people were going bananas. Literally - it was surreal." Source: djmag.com/content/game-changers-phuture-acid-tracks
Just when you think you have researched all there is to know about techno/trance...you find a classic like this and it throws everything you studied for 20 years out the window. Amazing acid trip dropped on a crowd of dancers for the very first time!!! That would have been amazing to witness!!!
@@BDF30 wow I cant believe I left that other comment. That's really douchey. Theres nothing wrong with discovering any music at any time. As long as you discover it eventually. Wtf was I on 10 months ago
i’m 13 and I was playing this on the speaker that I have in my room and my mom walked in and thought I was playing dance dance Revolution. now I remember where i heardthis type of music before. 🔥🔥🔥
"Oh shoot, man. 'Acid Tracks' wasn't pre-programmed, man. 'Acid Tracks' was an accident, man. When you get an acid machine you don't pre-program anything. You just hit some notes on a machine, man. DJ Pierre, he was over and he was just messing with this thing and he came up with that pattern, man. You know, dah-dah-dah-gwon-gwon-gyown-gagyown. So we were listening to it, getting drunk, man. 'Hey, this is kinda hot, man. This is a great mood, man. Let's put it out. What the fuck?' You know? We played it at the Music Box, man, and everybody was flipping. When I did Sleezy D, 'I've Lost Control', man, that's got screaming in it. Really, I was trying to get a mood something like the old Black Sabbath records or Led Zeppelin. So that's how it got the name Acid Tracks, because it's supposed to put you in a mood, you know? For one thing, the tune is eleven minutes of the same thing. slight changes, but not that noticeable. Like when you listen to a real long solo in the old days, it's the same bassline going and everybody's doing something different over it. That's supposed to capture a mood. Now, what everybody thought acid house was after that was a drum machine and that acid machine, the Roland TB-303, which was not the truth. Acid house was meant to be the capturing of moods. You don't have to use the same machine all the time. You can use different instruments. I hate that machine with a passion now. Everybody's using it wrong. The way they're diong it now, it's not capturing any moods. It's disrupting thought patterns, man. That just hurts when you listen to it all night. It stabs your brain, man. You hear doh-doh-doh-doh-doh-dit and I hate it, you know, when it goes dit-dit-dit-dit-dit-wheoghwowowweogh. Oh man! It's like scratching a chalkboard with your fingers, man! Man, I HATE that." - Marshall Jefferson, 1988
Although this was never my favorite track, mad respect. I was lucky, through a friend I discovered the LA underground warehouse acid house scene in 88/89. This really is what started it.
@Mario Angel Ruiz I saw Pierre at Wicked and in Campbell CA...I met Frankie Knuckles at Temple sometime before he passed. He also played which we dont have any more-SF Love Parade...Knuckles went off...You guys be safe and spread the acid love.
"This is the beginning" (DJ Pierre). I was 12 in 1987 and my music collection, cassettes of course, consisted of 'Best of' compilations, Ghostbusters soundtrack and sing along tapes. We like to think that our generation is the best- best in music or films or whatever- but music is timeless and with great music when it was made is irrelevant
In our evolution there is the Drum, Piano, Guitar and then the TB-303! In my world it's the TB-303 and everything else is secondary. Truly Amazing how far that little machine has gone!
Da war ich acht Jahre jung, und da ginge mir die Musik vom Onkel schon gut ab. Acid ist die Antwort auf alles.gute Laune im Kopp, acid auf den Ohren .. Alles ist in bester Verfassung ✌️😜😳😵💫🫨
Amazing how this instrument was able to turn a single simple bassline into a 20 minute track. A good example of people working around limitations. In this case, the difficulty of programming a single bass line and changing it on the fly.
Ok I’m just a poser newcomer with a TB-03 and a TR-09 but I think that and a sampler is enough to make some decent acid and this right here is inspiration! Love the twiddling skillz
Back when this was released, samplers like the Fairlight CMI were hugely expensive things to buy, what you're hearing is most likely just a Roland drum machine and a TB-303.
Absolutely disgusting, I’m a teenage raver getting into the dance scene and this track never fails to make my face scrunch up with these blasting beats. Amazing Trax
God I wish I was you. Started raving at 15 in 1994. Higher State Of Consciousness came out a year later as Acid House was dying a bit in my city. Moved on the Goa/psy trance and the scene gave me the best years of my life.
@@baptistejanin9615 I guess so. It's like with a compressor, it takes off the transients (the peaks of the waveform, ie where there is most treble). Very useful as the sharper sounds in a mix can get a bit *too* sharp without a compressor.
We lost a true legend icon founder of Acid House a very good close friend of mines the man who help pioneer "Acid House" from the group PHUTURE PHORTUNE & PHUTURE 303 Earl Smith aka Dj Spank Spank So sad of hearing the news wow he call me and wanted to come by my studio and help him rework his classic track "Acid Track" & "Pump it up spank spank" Earl did a remix for me and i re-release his classic on my label "Acid Bass" He was a down to earth caring person who love music and life!!! Gone but not forgotten my brother you legacy and your music will live on..... #ACIDHOUSE4LIFE!!! from your friend HOUZ'MON
Ahh.. the sound of my crazy fall down the rabbit hole! 🤪 those were the days with my champion bottoms and my pill box mirrored hat on tripping out my head with full strobe on and catatonic 😂 if you know, you know. Best days of my youth...I'd go back in a heartbeat. Buzzin😅
There's this white noise in the background of the Vocal Mix and it freaks me the fuck out every time. Yet at the same time it's charming, only because when your on acid, there's this paranoia affect to it. I think that's exactly what I hear when I'm on it, making it so familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. It's so beautiful.
U know this artist G Jones? I came from looking to find stuff like his and ye I gotta say they are pretty similar. G jones is just kinda more complex and faster and more variety but this is good too

We lost a true legend icon founder of Acid House a very good close friend of mines the man who help pioneer "Acid House" from the group PHUTURE PHORTUNE & PHUTURE 303 Earl Smith aka Dj Spank Spank So sad of hearing the news wow he call me and wanted to come by my studio and help him rework his classic track "Acid Track" & "Pump it up spank spank" Earl did a remix for me and i re-release his classic on my label "Acid Bass" He was a down to earth caring person who love music and life!!! Gone but not forgotten my brother you legacy and your music will live on..... #ACIDHOUSE4LIFE!!! from your friend HOUZ'MON

Ahh.. the sound of my crazy fall down the rabbit hole! 🤪 those were the days with my champion bottoms and my pill box mirrored hat on tripping out my head with full strobe on and catatonic 😂 if you know, you know. Best days of my youth...I'd go back in a heartbeat. Buzzin😅

Yeah acid is weird genre, there was a couple of good trax but the rest is garbage
Because it's been done.
Pretty much covered everything the 303 can do...all in this first song! Everything else is retreads.
This is so beautiful
There's this white noise in the background of the Vocal Mix and it freaks me the fuck out every time. Yet at the same time it's charming, only because when your on acid, there's this paranoia affect to it. I think that's exactly what I hear when I'm on it, making it so familiar and unfamiliar at the same time. It's so beautiful.
Its echo i think...
Exactly, it's reverb, and it's pulled more to the left, and it's maybe delayed a bit too.
When acid was acid.
世界の音楽フェスの動画に失望して、ここに来た。
こういう音をライブで今は聴けない？
TB-303を愛している。
Timeless I wish more 20 yr olds listened to this stuff 💀

@@boboivanovski good laddd
😎
hello
@@IStMl hello Broo
great memories. Going wild on mdma on this track in 1988. Acid house and MDMA a great combi
The original and the best. I dont think anything has come close to this track. Brutal.
U know this artist G Jones? I came from looking to find stuff like his and ye I gotta say they are pretty similar. G jones is just kinda more complex and faster and more variety but this is good too
@@xd-gm1mq bruh g jones is the damn truth
