the best songs ever: the lost years
Acid House.

An early track from 1987, by Chicago DJ artists Phuture:





From Wikipedia:

Quote:Acid house is a subgenre of house music developed around the mid-1980s by DJs from Chicago. The style was defined primarily by the deep basslines and "squelching" sounds of the Roland TB-303 electronic synthesizer-sequencer.[1] Acid house spread to the United Kingdom and continental Europe, where it was played by DJs in the acid house and later rave scenes. By the late 1980s, acid house had moved into the British mainstream, where it had some influence on pop and dance styles.

Acid house brought house music to a worldwide audience...

And by the early 90s it was becoming mainstream in the US, too, to become the dance sound of the 90s.  Here are a couple of tracks from 1991









Since Eric has taken to quoting youtube comments (though reading most of them will cause you to lose brain cells):

From someone called "soulboy1965":

Quote:I'm 51 but was clubbing when I was 14, hitting the Northern Soul scene, then the gay scene where 4x4 beats were compulsory and straight guys didn't dance at all - then along came the magic pill and broke down barriers all over.  Long live House!
