5.0 out of 5 stars Marvelous, January 10, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Utd State 90 (Audio CD)

808State has been one of the first band to make real electronic music in late 80's in Manchester.

Their sound is unique, you won't find another group making similar music and every track is different. They are good enough to make hardcore, trance, techno-jazz, house and on a live stage they are brilliant. So this album is one of the best. Just listen to Magical Dream and you'll understand why !

OK, at 16 I wasn't responsible enough to treasure my Cassette Tape for the Jewel it was. Wish I had this CD now. This was a classic album...a MUST for House Heads circa 1990. If you are a true House Fan and Carl Craig...Inner City...Kevin Saunderson are GURUS to you...this is a CD you MUST have!

START HERE! It's timeless, oftentimes quite gorgeous and, as mentioned above, it's fun! These guys (along with Gerald) pretty much started Acid House in the 80's (listen to Newbuild). After listening to UTD State 90 - move right along to "ex:el" - another big, bold, beautiful step in the right direction, just a little slicker sounding. Really, you won't go wrong buying all of these in their release order if you first start with UTD. State 90. Listen to the music samples off "Prebuild" and "Newbuild" before you purchase them - they might not be to your liking. And you can go waaaaay back and listen to Biting Tongues - Graham's first band (Pre-Prebuild). Get Utd. State 90 - you will LOVE IT! Then go get all the others.....
