Acid breaks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In electronic music, acid breaks is a fusion between breakbeat and acid forms of techno music. Its drum line usually mimics most breakbeat music, lacking the distinctive kick drum of other forms of techno. In addition, it usually has the high tones first produced by the TB-303 that is characteristic of acid music.

The first acid breaks track is credited to Zak Baney in 1987 for his track "Acid Break". ^[1]
