this cut took over NYC underground dance scene then it was co-opted by hip hop dj's such as clark kent and got even more exposure... shows you that music is music - to hell with the genres!

[6robski8]

Yep, originally an underground tune, probably on cassette and could have been as early as '86, played in Ron Hardy's Music Box, Chicago, which in itself was an alternative to the Frankie Knuckles disco/NYC Chicago house sound.

Whatever way you want it,and however it got to you, it's all good, we got it when it hit the clubs and parties of London in '88

Peace brother.

Listening to SimonUK (ComeUnity) spin this classic house jam at a Full Moon Party (by Vision and Wicked Crew) at Panther Rock (north of Santa Cruz, CA) back in 1993 was almost sublime. He followed it with "Funky Guitar" and then "I Want My Planet Back". Incredible set, and I just had to find out if this Acid Crash was available here on youtube. Thanks 6robski8- you're a fricking star!

[6robski8]

Thanks man, this is what it's all about.

We got a community here based on our memories and shared belief.

The revolution continues. :)

Peace man.

Man there was/is so much gay influence in House Music for years. From DJ's to artists.

Don't you think those queens who had the balls were doing it to house music before it became main stream????

Well they were at the paradise Garage and even before it..

FYI from another dancer who also went to most the clubs u mentioned and to a lot more even before Sound Factory. PD Garage, Choice, Loft, Nickle Bar, yadda yadda yadda.

It just got shitty when Madonna tried to tap into it.

b4 it went gay?? i thought it was black/gay gay then went black/latino str8 then turned for the worse when it went white gay/ british str8? Even my white friends agree with me...oh well homophobia will never die i guess

Acid at it's finest

[gilinnc]

Damn, I remember this track back in da days @ the Red Zone w/DJ David Morales in NY.

[spinradiofm]

Yeah I remember this track. Played it over and over at Mars, The Octagon and The Palladium (RIP). Those were the days. I also remember how hip-hop DJs jumped on and didn't play it right but they had the rooms so...this still stands the test of time. Most people didn't know this was a cleaned up rip of Lil Louis more raw "Acid Crash." I didn't find out myself until about a year later (1989).

Roooooooooots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[koolzainski]

@manclaudy it was always mixed actually: gays & straights, but in the mid-90's it got super gay with the shitty "super-dj's" like Junior Vasquez...

1989-1990 THE TUNNEL - NYC - dj Roman Ricardo...
