I wouldn't say that I absolutely love the music. It's pretty fun I guess. It's just that to me, whenever I had one of those weekends when you go out on Friday and you meet a friend and he takes you somewhere else and then you go somewhere else and you're still going on Sunday afternoon, it was always acid techno that ended up being the soundtrack to the last party, normally in a factory in Hackney Wick. On dissensus (and elsewhere) there is loads of discussion of hardcore and jungle and garage and grime and dubstep but I've never read anything about acid techno in the same way, and I've never really thought about it until I read that article. In my experience, London raving was a lot more about this stuff than the so-called 'nuum stuff that everyone talks about.
I guess for a scene to become discussed in that way there needs to be some eloquent voice that is passionate about the scene who writes about it in a way that's knowledgeable. For me, acid house wasn't written about much at the time because music journalists didn't know how to write about it and they were too busy covering bands - and when Happy Mondays and Primal Scream and that came along you could see that the journalists were relieved and kinda elevated them to being the kings of the scene. A few years later, some good writers who had been too busy getting twatted at the time decided that they could explain why they'd lost a few years going to these parties and suddenly there was a kind of critical reevaluation of acid house and other scenes (and everyone noticed that Primal Scream weren't that good). This has never happened for acid techno as far as I can tell. Maybe it never will.
