Acid House

Acid house is a genre of electronic dance music that emerged in the mid-1980s, characterized by its use of the Roland TB-303 bass synthesizer, which creates a distinctive, squelchy sound. It is often associated with the rave culture and the use of psychedelic drugs, promoting euphoric and immersive experiences on the dance floor. The genre's playful, experimental nature often includes repetitive beats and quirky samples. Acid house gained popularity in the UK and influenced various music styles, becoming a key part of the broader electronic music movement.
