So it's not acid house if there's distortion on the 303?? That's adding a little too much narrowmindedness to the genre I think.... Acid is a feeling, just as house is ;-)
personally, I wouldn't know how to really define acid house, but it sure isn't the 303 = acid equasion. There's plenty of brilliant acid around without the 303. Maurice Joshua's - I got a big d*ck as one of the best examples. And as far as distortion goes, like it or not, but Bang the Acid is still acid. Maybe you don't think it's great and it's not from the 80's or from Chicago or sounds like Phuture. But that doesn't mean it's not acid house.
