What we say

Rating: ecstatic This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic.

One of the most thrilling things about embryonic Acid house was the fact it actually still sounds really fresh today. Analogue, delirious & mad as badgers, not to mention influential as fuck it is. 808 State took the Detroit sound & added a further UK psychosis to it, claiming that the flow of really quality acid records from the States wasn't sufficient to satiate their appetites, so they started making their own. So for those who lapped up the seminal 'Newbuild', re-issued by Rephlex a few years ago, then here we now have 'Prebuild', early home recordings, sessions & deleted stuff from the really early days. It totally rocks. If you want to see where Squarepusher & his lil' bro' got some of their acid from, then look no further! CD/Dbl LP on Rephlex!

About the humble LP:

The LP is the daddy of formats. 12" inches of sheer joy. The LP adds to the glory of the 12" record as it can be played at a slower speed (33rpm instead of the usual 45rpm for singles), consequently more musical joy can be had. Played on a decent deck the sound of an LP is about a million times better than any other format. They look fantastic...... a nice gatefold sleeve with a information rich inner sleeve will keep you entertained for hours even before your stylus has chance to make eye contact with it's 12" prey. An essential part of musical heritage which will never be forgotten. It still does play at a multitude of speeds but as it's recorded to be played slower they normally sound ridiculous sped up. Though double albums can make up for this slight inadequacy by ramming more tunes into your ears for your money. Utterly essential.
