Yeah, but the early acid like phuture, armando etc. only used one acid line at a time. True, that was the real innovation (Phutures "Phuture Jacks" absolutely blew me away the first time I heard it), but Hardfloor took it to a new dimension with their build-ups and multiple acid lines.

Well they just did! - "Respect" its called, and it actually does vary a lot more in texture. It's a 4-out-of-5-star LP for me, but I liked 'em all along, so I'm not sure if it would be your cup of tea. I Don't understand why they put in a limited 10" with 2 trax off the "TB Resuscitation" LP in exactly the same mixes - apart from allowing me to phase, double beat and generally mess these two songs about. Also I think as acid303 rushes go, "fish & chips" is the equal of any, so there. J ^ James Skilton aka Steady J - jamess@firefox.co.uk ^---+ What's in the basket? My Brother!
