About This Print
Celebrate the movement that changed dance music forever with this Acid House 1988 Summer of Love Smiley Face Music List Print. Inspired by the rise of UK warehouse raves and the unmistakable sound of the Roland TB-303, this artwork captures the raw energy and optimism of a defining moment in club culture.
Emerging from Chicago and exploding across the UK, Acid House fused hypnotic basslines, stripped-back drum machines, and euphoric repetition into a new underground language. By 1988, the smiley face had become the symbol of unity, freedom, and late-night dancefloors.
This print features a curated selection of era-defining Acid House tracks, including music associated with Frankie Knuckles, Mr. Fingers, Adonis, Joe Smooth, Ten City, and A Guy Called Gerald – a printed snapshot of the records that shaped the Summer of Love.
Printed in bold Acid Yellow and Electric Pink, this London Print Works Acid House print reflects the colour, attitude, and rebellion of the late-80s rave movement.

Curated Track List & Musical Context
This Acid House 1988 print presents a curated track list rather than an exhaustive catalogue – a focused selection designed to reflect the sound, atmosphere, and cultural impact of Acid House during its most influential years.
A Curated Record of Acid House Music
Each track has been chosen to represent the authentic sound and collective energy of the Summer of Love, forming a printed “record box” of music history from one of dance music’s most important cultural moments.
The track list reflects our personal interpretation of the era, documenting records that captured its optimism, rebellion, and shared experience, while recognising that many other classics could easily have been included.
A Tribute to the People Behind the Movement
Created as both a tribute and an acknowledgement, this artwork honours the producers, DJs, vocalists, dancers, and innovators who built the Acid House scene from the ground up.
Designed with respect and appreciation for the pioneers of Acid House, this print celebrates the Summer of Love as both a musical revolution and a defining chapter in underground dance culture.
