A genuine slice of Chicago acid house history here, as a long hard-to-find gem from 1988 is given the reissue treatment, in the process marking the first time it has been available on a 12" single. Produced by Hula Mahone as Da Posse (rather than Maurice Joshua, who most assumed was behind the track), 'The Other Side' was first featured on an early acid house compilation. It remains a killer chunk of acid house soul, with Martell's superb sung and spoken vocal rising above jacking drum machine beats, a bold bassline and some seriously wiggly TB-303 acid lines. We also get a trio of fresh takes, with Island Life Records founder Clouds of Korous's thickset, warehouse-ready 'main room' interpretation being followed by a deliciously delay-laden, minimalistic acid house tweak by Paranoid London's Johnny Aux, and Age of Hyperion's dreamy, star-hazing bleep-and-breaks re-wire.
