acid techno? wtf comes up with these labels? what's next? jungle trance? |
Guess what: jungle-trance/trance'n'bass/trancestep has been around for a veeery long time. And if you think that acid techno is a new useless label - you need to study a wee bit more about electronic music ;)
Look for some of those music guides around the internet: it'll take some time for you to read those things, but the knowledge you get pays off :) |

personally, they don't make acid techno like they used to.. the days when skank was making the most mad tunes you couldn't imagine, and when the new "funky" acid techno was never dreamed about..
so much more could've been done with the screaming 303 sound which wasn't, the lib's & co made such amazing tracks as Stop/Go, with as much originality as a blue square for a company logo :rolleyes:

If you want tracks (mp3s at least), then i've got more than you could wish for, i can ID old tracks better than old ones. when soulseek is back up goto the acidphonk chat room and see for yourself.. :D

I was at www.bangingtunes.com and I noticed that there are VERY FEW Acid Techno tracks. And on other sites, there are very few tracks that are Acid Techno. Is Acid Techno a big genre? What are some good artists? I'm tired of Trance, and would like to reach out to a new genre. Already got lots of DNB, but, Acid Techno is so great ;) I need more information on it. Thanks! |
The development of trance followed very closely with acid techno. One of the biggest trance labels of the early 90's featured one of the biggest acid producers of the era, Hardfloor (it still amazes me to talk to kids who look at me with blank stares when I bring up the Hardfloor/Harthouse names...)
Acid got overdone by about 1997/1998, and it makes me a bit sad to see that alotta the labels like Platipus that used to be big into that stuff aren't really putting out much trance wih tons of nice squelchy acid lines anymore... :(
Given the cycle of things, I'm sure it'll be with a vengeance pretty soon! |

Acid Techno isn't big at all, especially in the United States. But you should listen to some techno artist like DJ Rush, Guy McGaffer, or D.A.V.E. the drummer. |
Hehe... you should drop by Wisconsin, the hardcore techno capitol of the US! I get ppl on a daily basis at my record store looking around for acid techno, new OR used... |

Huh??? What have you been smoking? Chicago is all about HOUSE, not techno. Detroit is about, well... Detroit techno, a sound all its own. Wisco is all about the hardcore stuff! |
