I Love Acid celebrate 10 years

Share

I Love Acid started as what was meant to be a one-off party, back in April 2007 celebrating all forms of acid and the sound of the Roland TB303.

Luke Vibert, Posthuman and friends playing a night of Braindance-style acid at Corsica Studios in London. A second party was organised a few months later…and then another…and now, it’s ten years later!

In 2014, a record label was born out of the club night. Strictly vinyl, no downloads and no represses, each edition limited to 303 hand-numbered and stamped copies. That series is approaching number 14 now, with each record selling out usually in days or even hours.

To celebrate the 10 years of I Love Acid & aptly on the 30 Years of Acid House, they are releasing a compilation containing 20 tracks released on a custom designed USB stick shaped like a TB303, crafted to fit & work with CDJs, on a keyring and cast in rubber to protect from wear and tear. The stick itself is 8gb in size allowing the owner to add plenty more music and make use of the stick how they wish.   Music wise, it features tracks from TB Arthur, Hardfloor, John Heckle, Transparent Sound, Hannah Holland, Jozef K, Pye Corner Audio and more representing the many facets of I Love Acid – from acid house to ambient, techno to breaks, electro to experimental.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
