"But actually it was is was the Adonis "space mix" of Sleezy D's (Marshal Jefferson) 1986 release "I've Lost Control" that first introduced the sound of the Roland TB-303 to the house music community and in doing so opened the way for acid house." --Sholem Stein

Derrick Harris (- 2019) was an American musician and pioneer of house music and acid house. He is known for the song "I've Lost Control", which was released as a 12" single on the Trax Records label, issue number TX 113. The song used a Roland TR-808 and a Roland TB-303 bass synthesizer to create the signature modulated waveform sound which would directly inspire acid house. The track is arguably the first to use this particular sound, and rose to cult underground popularity thanks to DJ Ron Hardy's Music Box club in Chicago.
