A pinger at Hacienda Classical sounds hilariously awful. The whole Hacienda Classical makes me depressed. Is this what we fought the acid house wars for?!

Yeah. I mean to me one of the main things about ‘acid house’ is that it was a total rejection of the live music / gig experience. Not quite sure why there’s such an appetite for these orchestral shitshows.

I googled “Hacienda Classical” and could only make it 30 seconds through the opening sequence…_woof_.

But as a gigging classical musician I can only hope maybe these pay decently and, tasteless as they are, could be a steady gig capitalising off the nostalgia…

Hilariously awful sums it up. @Piers i confess I was there too. Through a random connection I’ve got access to a box at RAH so we went along. It was like everyone was on the clock, racing to get as smashed as possible before they had to get back for the babysitter. Total cliche. Obviously I sat in the box misbehaving terribly and pretending I wasn’t one of the twats when of course I was.

I’ve heard a few experimental classical crossover things I liked, the standout being those piano pieces Francesco Tristano worked on with Carl Craig, but orchestras playing Faithless with Tong pretending to be a conductor are inherently wrong on every level

That whole thing is like Kryptonite to my very soul. The day I fancy anything like that my girlfriend has permission to take me outside and shoot me 😬

Don’t forget DJ Spoony’s Classical Garage, only a matter of time until Classical Gabber is upon us

Picking up on what Piers said, i don’t think acid house was necessarily ‘anti’ live performance. Am thinking of performances i’ve seen over the years, from Paul Rutherford doing a live PA of Get Real or the Juan Maclean slaying all before them with the full Happy House. Tortured Soul and Kelley Polar were pretty good too, each coming from different angles. I agree dark, sweaty parties made the dancers the focal point but there was often some visual element, no?

Don’t forget Dubtribe Sound System… In fact the Juan Maclean owe ol’ Sunshine and Moonbeam a whole lot…

You could point the finger all the way back to the Williams Fairey Brass Band’s ‘Acid Brass’ in the 90s except that was quite fun/original.

So was it Goldie who sowed the seed for the current cash in shite, I can’t quite remember?

That’s just triggered an horrendous flashback. Pretty sure i got dragged along to one of these at Kew Gardens a few years ago - 2016 or 17. Cant remember a thing about it so it must’ve been terrible and we hopefully left early 🤣
