Darkest Acid Techno Record

[Aratron]

I'd probably agree with you there mate, there aren't nearly as many. However, that mobile dogwash one on dirtbomb was pretty grimey and some of the earlier ones on getafix were pretty dark. The one with the sample about 'the more powerful technology'.

spot on there mate.

Mobile Dogwash are awesome, Chimp Fiddler is an killer tune.

And i am bang into Getafix Funking Junky is awesome, Technokardia is awesome, haven't heard that powerful technology tho :cry:
I just haven't heard owt with a really dark line running thro it for ages, i thowt Amphetamine / Cocaine has some dark riffsa in it

[lunatrick]

squat rock gets my vote.......darkside, goes on for ages, starts halfway through (if you know what I mean)......just keeps building........first time I heard it in a club off my tits blew me away............awesome.

[tOM B]

Arkatek on cluster -can't remember the name of the tune

A couple of the tunes on the jon peel album on sufr are quite dark as well, i agree that the older stuff is darker, squat roc & 3 lines of k and a bag of brown definately qualify

Not really acid though is it?

Does Getafix use a 303?

I could roll off quite a lot of dark tunes, but wouldn't really class any of them as acid tbh.

Racetrax is quite dark, 'ravey, but dark with that acid tinge to it.'

Darkest acid label (i think) at the mo' is probably Smitten is Dead or Skankadelic.

**** The War was pretty f'kin hard/dark acid an' all!

[Ginjin]

I am going to go with.... Sin Drome by Charlie dont surf on Havok 10

[analog tactic]

yea i think im gonna vote sidewalk theory was well, echoes sounds well dark. Science of Acid on VCF is prity dark as well.

You make me Laugh - Rowland Being a Real Bastard

you just reminded me why it was the original of destruction i wanted and not the remix.

well i think everyone's perceptions of what is a good tune or a dark tune are different, which is a relief tbh.
Where as you would consider Smitten is Dead and Skank to be dark acid label i would probably think they were not dark at all, but excellent acid techno all the same esp Skank, Smitten is Dead , IMO is a joke.
**** the War again IMO totally boring not dark at all just commercial and annoying.
I don't necessarily think you have to have a pronounced 303 sound , for a tune to be acidic.
what do i know tho?

yep , the remixes don't do anything for me im afraid the original was spot on in the first place.

"acid techno" by Immersion

"44 calibre" by Magnum Force

"frontier" by Digital Destroyer

"buzz saw" by Dogs On Rope

[Aratron]

pounding grooves set is dark as ****

[AcidTrash]

"it's f*cking dark" Fabulous 23's

[ANDROID]

i think can't go darker then any of A&E Dept records...

[acidsaturation]

Yeah A&E dept are quite dark. And what's the one with the sample that goes "if you don't wanna come with us, you don'thave to" - one of my fav's and forgotton the name. I reckon that's quite dark in a creepy kind of way.

Also, not acid techno, but I was listening to Empirion yesterday and that's quite dark in a different kind of way.

I see what you're saying, that was just an example of the more (not so) recent stuff really. You're right you don't really need an acid line for a tune to be acid techno, it was just a generalisation really and can be debatable as to what makes acid techno. You could argue that if you take the acid line away from an acid techno tune then you're left with a techno record.

Secret Hero - Control was quite dark acid.
