this is dubious at best one small Guardian item and a blog post are weak, and demonstrate undue weight, more verifiable secondary sources need to be found to support the claim of "first acid house record." An early example of TB-303 usage, yes, claims of "first" are debatable and need to be discussed. There are dozens of Italo Disco tracks etc. that sound acid houseish, and which pre-date this record. Acid house is acid house, records that sound like acid house because they feature similarly filter cut-off and resonance effects are not necessarily acid house. If cites exist to demonstrate otherwise no worries, let's use them. -- Semitransgenic ( talk) 14:30, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Have you actually listened to it ? If it is not fake it is ridiculously ahead of its time and deserves better than to be relegated to the trivia section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.168.24 ( talk) 23:30, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Hello and Happy New Year. This article has a contentious Etymology section. It is written using wording like "Some accounts say", "Some accounts disavow", "Several accounts" (tagged with {{ which}}) and the sentence includes a CN tag, as well as "By other accounts". These types of wording, lacking content to back it up, certainly beg questions that require sourcing, meaning the tag is justified. The end result is that the B-class article assessment, per the three projects, is questioned.
I have not been involved with the article but the section is certainly in need of correcting or, depending on the importance, removed. If someone would take a look at this I would appreciate it. Otr500 ( talk) 14:59, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
I do not know why Humanoid has been singled out as the only Acid House tune that broke through into the mainstream when you had D-Mob and Gary Haisman getting into the Top Ten weeks before Humanoid charted (with D-mob going down to #28 on the chart of 20 November 1988 - 26 November 1988 [1]) and causing a moral panic in the process. Even though some would say "We Call It Acieed" is as much a cash-in as "Love House" by Samantha Fox (#39 on the chart of 20 November 1988 - 26 November 1988) and not Acid House at all, it still was important part of the story of Acid House in the UK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.154.172.75 ( talk) 16:34, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

The work by Moroder which has actual "acid" sounds is "Chase" from 78 (12 inch version). The extended version of this piece has a couple of sections with Acid sound. I Feel Love didn't have this kind of Acid sound, despite how influential that song proved to be otherwise. 212.97.250.18 ( talk) 21:00, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
