Acid music, often referred to simply as "acid," is a subgenre of electronic dance music (EDM) known for its distinctive and futuristic sound. Emerging in the late 1980s and gaining popularity in the 1990s, acid music is characterized by its heavy use of the Roland TB-303 synthesizer, which produces the signature squelching, resonant, and hypnotic sound associated with the genre.

The term "acid" in acid music does not refer to the corrosive substance but rather to the acidic and otherworldly tones created by manipulating the TB-303's analog circuits. This genre is known for its repetitive, pulsating rhythms, and hypnotic melodies, often accompanied by energetic beats and percussion.

Acid music played a significant role in the development of techno and electronic music, influencing numerous artists and subgenres within the electronic music landscape. Its distinct sonic palette and innovative approach to sound design continue to inspire and captivate electronic music enthusiasts and producers to this day.

Big thanks to all involved artists
