In his broadcast last week Radio One DJ Gilles Peterson did a retrospective show on drum'n'bass playing a series of epical releases, as he saw them.
At one point he credits Pacific State for being a major influence on the dreamy chords business in the drum'n'bass genre.
Hearing this came as a surprise for me, and is something I have never heard said anywhere else or thought of myself.
Unfortunetly the show is no longer officially available, but I will supply that quote here tonight.
More honour for Pacific State

Hearing it again, I'm not really sure if he referes to a particular track og d'n'b as a whole. But listening to an early and influential cut as Parallel Universe by 4hero, which he playes earlier in the show, clearly has chord played out and sounding like Pacific State.
