The 303 has been making a wonderful comeback but anyone else still miss the beauty of the 303 in the playful genre of Acid House? Really wish there were acid house nights. Would love to know what fellow TAers think of this genre and what are some of their favorites:

We've had some local parties recently with a lot of acid house old and new getting played and everyone just goes nuts, just got great party vibe about it. Had this classic cranked the other day.
