PHuture 303’s BIO Respect to those who deserve it ! There is much debate and speculation about who created Acid music. Acid was not created by Spanky or DJ Pierre or whom ever said they created Acid. The general consensus of opinions swings towards PHuture, now known as, PHuture 303. With the classic hit 'Acid Tracks', the dance music world was torned on its head. PHuture had unwittingly created the blueprint for the children of the revolution. It was the creative talent of Earl 'Spanky' Smith that changed the course of dance music history forever. It was around 1984 when Spanky and Herb Jackson searched high and low throughout the city of Chicago for a Roland TB 303 just to make bass lines. Later, DJ Pierre joined Spanky and Herb and from this legendary moment in-house music was born in the form of 'Acid Tracks'. The tape created in this immortal session was passed onto the legendary DJ Ron Hardy, who at the time was a resident at the Music Box. Ron Hardy played the tape 4 times that night and a new phenomanen was born. With the release of their second hit single, 'We Are PHuture' the groups staus as the leader of the Acid House scene was confirmed (pressed on the ever so dodgy recycled Trax imprint). After a year, the future of the group was put on hold. DJ Pierre moved to New Jersey after his club hit 'Pfantasy Girl'. Nothing was heard from the PHuture crew until 1990. At this time 'Rise From Your Grave' was unleashed with a line up featuring Spanky, DJ Pierre, Roy Davis Jnr, Jay Janall, and Phill Little. This much sought out release forced a shock wave throughout the dance world underground and PHuture was reborn. After the success of this release DJ Pierre left the group, to concentrate on solo projects, and was replaced by Damon 'Professor Trax' Neloms. The group then expanded into a larger multi-headed monster with the addition of Ron 'DJ Skull' Maney and Roy Davis Jnr. Together they scored a huge hit with the epic 'Times Fade' and the follow up debut album 'Alpha & Omega' in 1998. Not long after the album Spanky and Prof. Trax decided to keep the group as a duo. DJ Skull and Roy Davis Jnr. left and continued with their own solo recordings. The duo then unleashed their powerful signature tune 'Acid Soul' on Djax Up Beats. The pioneering spirit of the first hour back at the Music Box still lives on with each new track that PHuture creates. Now with a whole new load of tracks recoreded PHuture release their new album on Belgium's infamous Music Man label. The album features a return of DJ Pierre to the group for a new version of Lil Louis 'Blackout' with Spanky doing the vocals again from scratch. The new album, 'Survivals Our Mission', staying true to the original spirit and sound of this pioneering outfit, PHuture will survive !
