À propos de ce contenu audio

It’s 1985 in the largest Midwestern city of the United States, Chicago, and three friends are tinkering with a newly acquired device, the Roland TB-303 bass synthesiser. The 303 has been manufactured and marketed as a bass line generator, for solo musicians to use as an accompaniment in the same way they might use a drum machine for drum parts. Earl Smith, otherwise known as Spanky, Herbert Jackson, or Herb J, and Nathaniel Pierre Jones, DJ Pierre, find an entirely different personality and application though, for the 303. On the first day that DJ Pierre tinkers with the device, he extracts from it a squelchy, psychedelic sound, that has seemingly nothing in common with a bass guitar. With this sound he creates the core of the track that will become known as “Acid Tracks”, from which the genre of acid house will emerge.
