Acid house peaked in the UK at the end of the 80s…

But a big part of the soundtrack came from the US.

👉 Trax Records out of Chicago.

Raw, minimal, hypnotic.

And some of those records didn’t just travel to the UK…

they also hit hard back home.

Like this one:

👉 #1 on the US dance chart this day in 1989.

Transatlantic feedback loop in full effect.

👉 UK energy or Chicago origin, which mattered most?
