Released by Richard D James aka Aphex Twin on his label Rephlex records in 2009. Richard never does tracks in a straight genre and this track is no exception, but its clear that he knows how to get an expressive performance out of a TB-303.

This mind blowing resource is an incredible way for exploring not just the history of Acid techno, but all forms of electronic music. It features a whole family tree of electronic music genres going back to the 1900s. When you zoom in and click on a tile along any branch of the family tree you get a playlist of samples from compositions released that year in that sub-genre.

Free Community Acid Compilation (communitymodularelectronic.bandcamp.com)

I put this together about a year ago. I just wanted to meet artists and make a digital mixtape. It was a wonderful experience.

I was in the middle of making a new acid comp when the reddit blackouts happened. A lot of artists left the site and kind of shelved the project for now. Last years was a wonderful album though

Uneven Surface's Dog Inc., released in 1998, showcases how expressive a simple 7-step TB-303 polyrhythmic bassline can be with a little tweaking.

Mark Gage's 1994 album Themes From Vapourspace is an incredible one hour mix of original music that is well worth a listen. Headphones are a must with this one.
