An album well worth seeking out for students of electronic music in general and of 80s dance music in particular. It's also a great listen.

Nayatol

More like Goa Trance then Acid house. Awesome though!

Llanonte

...but if you listen disc2 on 33 1/3 RPM - you will hear a unique, psych. slow banger. Total boss traxx.

Shaktit

Yes ! Acid Goa Psychedelic Trance ... i think Ozric Tentacles are very inspired from him .... Daddy Charanjit Singh ! :)Namaste

Riavay

Same opinion here, this sounds like Goa Trance (original scene, that means...90s)

Enditaling

India invented zero too.

I had heard of this record through the years, like the same way you might hear of Bigfoot, Chupacabras,or Nessie. It was a myth, something that just should not be, a rumor that in 1982 an electronic acid house record was made in India with rollin 808s and layered 303 and 909-like sounds. I came across acid house and acid music in oh i dont know, maybe 1988? something like that. Eventually, the myth came to reality, and in my hands landed a reissue of the mythic record, and yes it does and did exist, and India was rockin acid house in 1982, wow.

Qus

this has got to be the most out there tune i know....the acid wave really got going in 1987....but this tune is the daddy of them all.....1982 = speechless <3
