Store Categories 808 STATE - QUADRASTATE 2xLP / NEW VINYL / REPHLEX 2008
Double LP version. This is a reissue of 808 State's 1989 release, Quadrastate, plus bonus tracks. Formed in 1988, members of 808 State at this point included Graham Massey, Andrew Barker, Darren Partington, (A Guy Called) Gerald Simpson and (Eastern Bloc Records Founder) Martin Price. The band's rare debut single from '88, "Let Yourself Go/Deepville" is included on this album, together with the inclusion of some other previously-unreleased alternate versions and outtakes. Quadrastate completes the popular re-release trilogy on Rephlex, which also included the highly-acclaimed Newbuild and Prebuild albums (and was accompanied by the successful "Acid House Mixes" by New Order). Originally released on Creed Records, these recordings were born in Manchester in the months after the second Summer of Love, in 1988/1989. These tracks were hugely influential to the popular electronic dance music explosion that soon followed all around the world. This is the album where we originally heard the international hit song, "Pacific." As with many producer teams, the combination of influences and characteristics is what makes the sound unique. Quadrastate still has a fresh sound; incredibly bouncy bass lines, pioneering use of breakbeats and all the energy and inspiration of analog-digital-hybrid jams.
