Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

12. Acid Eiffel

…and I also didn’t have time to add any acid, like this. I think it’s narrow minded to say that a track like this isn’t house. Again it’s where you put it in a mix and in what tempo (pitch down!!!). Back in the mid-90s my crew and I used to pitch down more techno related stuff like crazy to fit into house sets, we thought house was too limited. BOOM! Since 2004 house and techno have come together in a much broader sense and the world has became a richer place after all. Still, I seem to prefer the 90s productions but that’s not a rule for me.
