808 State Discussion

Head off with Phuture "Acid Trax" (at a bit of an up-pitch).

Here we go.

Pity. Be sure to snatch Pump Up The Volumn while at it.

The Massey mix is really something (havn't heard the other one yet). Selected gems - past and present.

I guess that is Walter Carlos peaking out.

Anyone who knows the first track? Or a full listing actually. Graham.

The x-ray ears has made yet another sample spot. Check out Nitrous "Moonwalk" from 1990. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwXA2Tgy5sk Check out the sounding of the synth on the main melodyline. It is exactly the same as the intro on 80808080808 and it cannot be a coincidence. Also it is notisable, tha...

Greg Wilson finishes off his absolutely amazing Essential Mix of last weekend with Pacific 707 (Hacienda style). Including his own effects and the Jesse Jackson speech known from Come Together. Promise me to check it out before it is too late. Massive. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/essentialmix/ The O...

The NEW SESSIONS: 808 STATE

808 State in concert in Manchester.

If it is the one I have on VHS it is introduced with a feature on house music feat. Electribe 101 and others. My recording is so poor I gave up making a transfer.

It wasn't on the vinyl, so in that respect you're right about it being a CD bonus track. Which puzzles me to this day. Olympic Flutey Mix is so wonderful and it was a mistake to omit it generally.

Happy 080808. I wish a great show for everybody going there tonight.

Is this exclusive this this CD? (guess so) Ran through some tunes on there on Juno and it is really goosebump stuff. The Derrick May stuff like R-Theme is so bloddy timeless. Sounds like it has a crisp sound as well. Justin Robertson is also one of my heros from the early 90's. Apparently he is the ...
