techno house The Ultimate TECHNO UNDERGROUND HOUSE REPORTS TECHNO UNDERGROUND HOUSE REPORTS written by ELITE Well guys, I know that there aren't many people who hear this style of music, but the underground music is getting more and more famous. Anyway, each computer freak who loves computer sounds and music will love the underground music too coz TECHNO and HOUSE trax are always made with a cool computer, a bassline, a synthi and a expensive sampler. For people who don't like this style i can only say: Bad luck this time freak! It's time to tell the people more facts about underground music. O.k. before I start my test I'll give ya a small glance backward from the beginning of underground music. At the beginning there was the cool acid-house-time. Lets begin here. By 1987 a new style of house music began to escape from chicagos recording studios. It was a deep, highly sound, which evoked strange, almost drug-induced images. the second generation house probably began with the international success of phuture's 'Acid tracks', a hugely influential record, which captured the extreme spirit of the house scene's most ardent adherents, the hardcore dancers in chicago, who varously experimented with lsd, acid psychedelia and new designer drugs like ecstasy. The Acid sound is essentially a technical mistake, a distorted noise made by a Hi-tech synthesiser known as a roland tr 303, which was first stumbled on by a chicago producer known simply as Pierre, who under the name phuture recorded the first authentic 'Acid-house' sound called 'Acid trax'. Well, by the summer of 1988, the british charts and the over zealous tabloid press were over-run with the great Acid style. But after a while there were rumours about some Acid pardeys where there were sum freax who dealed real drugs. So the world press and the speakers of TV-news warned the people to enter a Acid-house pardey. Many pardeys got busted from the cops. But there wasn't many pardeys where real drugs got sold. After this facts acid-house became a new name. Techno-House or Techno-Trance. so Acid-house didn't died real. Only the name was changed. but the old and cool acid-sounds and voices are still the same. Only people who don't know anything about acid-house say these silly and stupid lies that acid is out. Always remeber that only the name has changed. Well, before i start for real I'll show you what's typical for a Acid (i still say acid, because I like this cool word) Techno-House-Pardey. Perhaps you know the Stroboscope-Light in the discos? Yes? O.K.! This light came from the Acid-house times! it's really great to watch the freax in this stroboscope-light. Really cool. you think you're watching crazy robots dancing to trance. A real and full space-disco has furthermore a great laser-system which throws lasers the whole night in the dancing area. Great, then the wellknown fog is coming up. I can only say: If you like this kind of music and you don't go to this great blackout pardeys you've missed everything. Yep guys, I'll start now!
