I mean I don't even know if people actually listen to acid or if it's a genre of music that online projects like this seem to latch on to. I don't recall (but I'm pretty insular) it being a thing anywhere.

Trance/dance music, sure. I guess acid is a subgenre?

Acid is probably the most trending subgenre of techno these days, just cuz you've never heard of it...

You don't know what you're talking about, here's a foundational acid track that's probably older than you... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PbGTj9Yb_x4

Nothing that the parent comment said implied that acid is a new genre. They were saying it's very popular now, which is true.

YOU are the ignorant one if you don't know that acid is very much alive and kicking today.

I can confirm acid techno is alive and well in Berlin. Lots of good music coming out and DJs playing it.

They have a lot of DJs from this type of genre.

That tiled room gets me through the workday. In that ilk: Fear n Loathing. Art of Minimal. Trippy Cat Music. Beamer. A bit further from that sound but still great for coding: Cercle, Radio Intense, Cafe de Anatolia.

Yes it's a subgenre, and yes it's a thing and has been for a couple of decades. And it even has its own subgenres/'mixins' like acidcore or goa with acid influences (not sure that one has a name).

For being an (insular) world traveller, you offer scant information.
