LOST ACID CLASSIC: Rediscovering Rickster's "Night Moves (Night House Mix)"

Every so often, delving into the depths of my vinyl collection unearths a gem so radiant, it reaffirms my love for the unpredictable joy of discovery. Rickster's "Night Moves (Night House Mix)" is one such ecstatic revelation. This track, with Steve "Silk" Hurley's unmistakable touch in production, stands as an absolute Acid House classic, a testament to the genre's golden era. From the first moment, it's evident that Hurley's handywork was key to elevating this track into the realms of Acid House royalty. The concoction of crisp, sharp, engaging percussion, alongside a solid 303 bassline, lays the foundation for what can only be described as a journey through sound. Add to this the classic Chicago House style piano, stab sampled vocals, and the actual vocal which is sincere and probably done in one take! I mean you're not just listening to a track; you're experiencing the very essence of Acid House. It's a pure, unadulterated classic
