Dirty Bass - Pendulum Days - Acid Techno

[dirty_bass]

Well I think the problem is that the old sound was always the best.
Minimal content, big kicks, simple structure, MELODY, and HOOKS.
The new stuff is just badly compressed loopy cheese, verging on being hard house.

There seems to be a resurgence of hook and riff based simplified techno in the mainstream scene, so why not in acid as well.

I`ll certainly start making it a playing it.

Haha, well I doubt any of the acid stuff I`m doing will make it to vinyl, unless someone wants it, but it won`t make any of my labels.

Anyway, once the PA is finished I`ll see if anyone wants me to play it out at a club, if not, I`ll no doubt bang it out at a free party and get the recording up on here.

I am currently commiting sacrilege and remixing one of my fave ever acid tech tunes, so I`ll post that up here when it`s done

My thoughts exactly. 100% spot on IMO.

Yeah, why not acid??? I look back and think,'Bloody hell, some of the best experiences in my life, on the dance floor as well as in front of mi decks at home, were when listening to Acid Techno...

The producers at the time pioneered the sound and as you say, did it soooo well...

Fusing with Hard House did the scene no favours, imo, although this wasn't the only factor which contributed to the scene losing it's identity and sense of purpose...:mrmyagi:
