For original eighties chicago acid check out one of the retro acid comps that
have been coming out recently (anything with trax by Phuture, Armando, Hot
hands Hula or Jack Frost is a good pointer) . this stuff is really sparse and
raw. For a more trancey take check out Hardfloor's early stuff on Harthouse
(before they got formulaic adn started remixing averyone and his brother). For
some killer hard stuff check out the various Universal indicators on Rephlex,
and anything by Kosmik Kommando. (though some of his stuff is really mellow
too) Also wicked are the Acid Rain EPs on UR, though these may be hard to find
now.
