Vakula - Leleka May 25, 2012
100% agree ! It's a pleasure to listen to the whole EP & to see the 2 colors wax turning on the turntable. A great artwork & item + fantastic house music.
Mr Fingers* - Ammnesia May 02, 2012
On my original copy (1989), side 4 has inverted tracks "Mystery Of Love" & "The Juice" doesnt sound like label & cover notes. Is there other people with same track list error ?
Downtown (Version 1) on B side has one of the grooviest acid bassline. Here again the formula is the same as ever, its mostly just bass & beats with some strings but for a maximal impact. Acid house meets deep house & it's good to hear !
Acidtown on main side sounds too cheesy for me, it's a bit of acid with edited version of Lipps Inc's Classic "Funky Town".

This Ep CD features extented versions. Apart from the swedish CD compilation "Dance '88" on Sonet records only this release offers a full extented mix of "S'Express - Superfly Guy" on digital disc.
This video is the essence of acid house music.
This obscure record reminds me good times. The B side, with its 2 acid tracks were the kind of stuff usually played in Spiral Tribe's underground free parties. This is robotic music for altered states of mind.
When i think Djax Up Beats records, i think Random XS, Chicago House artists for european market, Edge Of Motion, Acid music with jackin vibes & This Poltering Rhythm Traxx EP. I remind the year 1992 as the time acid music was coming back & this was so exiting to me. The 303 sounds on records were more wild & stronger than ever. A top radio dj friend of me used to bring us the new euro techno sound emerging & he had this surprising green record full of cool dj-friendly cool drums traxx. This sounded fresh & weird but the use of machine here is finally very effective on big sound system. This is top party music & to me one of best Djax release.

Only this edition features the original & best version of Oochy Koochy (The one with fat acid subbass) originally only available on first 12" pressings (FORD1 / BFORD1).
F+S* - Acid One Nov 29, 2011
This is acid house madness for a new generation : top hardcore '88 house music vibes. The original version is the best one while Snuff Crew's Edit adds Inner City's like chord sounds. Dj Pierre's version is more cliché with it's classic dark voice in Phuture's style.
