Acid house is a sub-genre of house music developed around the mid-1980s by DJs from Chicago Illinois. The defining feature of a ‘squelching’ bass sound was produced using the Roland TB-303 electronic synthesizer-sequencer. Acid house spread to the United Kingdom and continental Europe where it was played by DJs in the acid house and later rave scenes.
