― lukey (Lukey G), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 09:39 (twenty-one years ago)

There were a whole bunch of great Chicago tracks, you want those too? I don't think they were played much in the UK, but not sure.

Bear in mind that not all of the above strictly qualifies as "acid".

The Mastercuts Classic Acid compilation is good.

surely you mean the Hardfloor mix of "Yeke Yeke"? (btw Nigella Lason chose that as a Desert Island Disc on radio 4 - i'm sometimes glad i still read the Guardian).

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 10:08 (twenty-one years ago)

is that true jed, the hardfloor rmx? :-O

on topic: dr derelict - that shit's wild.

when did izit - stories come out? i think that was a big UK warehouse tune, not that i was old enough to go to any. plus, affrodisiak. and debbie malone - rescue me.

― nebbesh (nebbesh), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 10:24 (twenty-one years ago)

The Hardfloor remix of "Yeke Yeke" surely came later than in '87-'89, right? I think it was in 1995.

― Tuomas (Tuomas), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 10:27 (twenty-one years ago)

blessed are the tune identifyers! thank you.

― lukey (Lukey G), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 10:32 (twenty-one years ago)

according to the Guardian yes, she did. according to this - it wasnt neccesarily the hardfloor mix (although that might not be something radio 4 might find it relevant to mention).

you're right Tuomas - i didnt really realise this thread was about the first wave of acid specifically.

― jed_ (jed), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 10:37 (twenty-one years ago)

given that she said the Chemical Brothers and New Order, we can only assume that yes it was the Hardfloor mix, and that Nigella Lawson is the perfect woman.

"teenage dirtbag"?????

No, absolutely not. There was a M/A/R/R/S remix which appeared - on white label at the very least - in Summer 1988. It's at home in the attic. I think I'm correct in saying that it's the only tune other than "Pump Up The Volume" which bears their imprint.

Late summer/early autumn 1989; I always associate it with Quadrastate, "Your Love" and Kariya's "Let Me Love You For Tonight". I didn't include it in my list because it was too downtempo.

Bam Bam - "Give it to me"
That "Got the bug" tune - who was it by?
Yazz - "Stand up for your love rights" beatmasters remix, kid you not, is really good
6 Brown Brothers - "Battery acid"
Professor of Acid - "Ecstasy"

― Jacob (Jacob), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 12:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Yazz - "Stand up for your love rights" beatmasters remix, kid you not, is really good

Seconded. Found a sealed copy a few years back for next to nothing.

― Tantrum The Cat (Tantrum The Cat), Wednesday, 20 October 2004 13:22 (twenty-one years ago)

There was also a good acid-tinged Bam Bam remix of Yazz "The Only Way Is Up".
