It took me years to realize that "808 State" was named after the TR-808 drum machine. The name of this particular song, "Pacific State", always made me think the band name referred to the State of Hawaii, whose area code is 808....and "808 State" was like a Hawaii state of mind (i.e. sun, ocean, surfing, chilling, etc.). I over-analyzed like I always do!

We was a lucky generation who could be free and rave , no stabbings , violence just dancing, I am 49 now and rules and change in young people today worry me. Tell your Mum to Rave on

@@PROTEK123 Very true! To be honest I find it scary to go out these days with all the knife crime/acid attacks going on. Not to mention young people my age are constantly worried about what they look like and posing. My mum tells me at raves no one cared about the way another person was dancing/what they looked like - it was about having a good time without judgement. It's a shame I couldn't experience it for myself but at least my mum, yourself and many others had a great time

I was born in '57. I was an original Flower Child in the '60's, listening to all kinds of MusiK, but I've always loved SYNTHS the best. I remember the early MOOGs and how electronic MusiK gained popularity over the next few decades. I found KRAFTWERK in 1978, and New Wave was big in the '80's. In the late '90's, I was RAVING in The REDWOODS in HUMBOLDT County, [EUREKA] NorCal, USofA, helping the DJ set up his sound system. They don't do parties like that anymore. Tracks like this bring it all back. :D

It was September of 1990. A car load of us went to a country park outside Glasgow to an event called 'Slam In The Park'. Jon Da Silva from the Hacienda, Alex Paterson from The Orb, the Slam boys and 808 State. Changed our lives forever. 30 years have passed but my love for House music has never waivered. This particular tune holds its own even after all these years. If you played it anywhere and at any time you'd light up peoples lives. A timeless classic.

1989 to us was like 1969 to the hippies.. we reached a cultural peak and the powers didn't like it. By the mid 90s Draconian laws were passed that effectively made it ILLEGAL for a movement like this to happen again, notably the Criminal Justice Bill, after this you couldn't play music loud in public.

my dad's told me how this is what he jammed to when he was my age. That was probably 2 years ago. I finally played this on Spotify last week. Instantly in love. Just listening to this makes me want to have lived in his time, a much more simpler time. Last week, I just absolutely blasted this through the speakers in the den while playing a game. I'm only 17, but damn this gives me feels for a time I won't experience.

Heard this tune for the first time in a bus when i was about 11 years old heading home from amusement park back in summer 1995, it was such a cool feeling hearing a beat with nature sounds and that base in the backround while just looking out the window passing through central Gothenburg,Sweden.
