Mental Cube - Chile Of The Bass Generation - 13-Jul-08 12:36 PM
I first heard Q on a local pirate radio station and luckily taped the show but it but it took me a while to work out what the track name was (cheers Mr Mumble). Q is an awesome track, and it still sounds great today. The A-side is great too. The 3rd track is an oddity, doesn't sound right on 33 or 45rpm and no matter what you do with the pitch it doesn't sound "right".
808 State - The Extended Pleasure Of Dance EP - 07-Feb-06 07:54 PM
Cubik was absolutely hammered at the Stone Roses gig at Spike Island in May 1990. 808 state were there along with Frankie Bones and played records, but didn't do a DJ set. They must have played cubik a good ten or twelve times throughout the course of the day.
Cubik is also infamous for being played by Greater Manchester Police in an attempt to unsettle the rioters who staged a four week long rooftop protest at Strangeways prison in April 1990. It had the opposite affect and the protesters could be seen dancing on the roof.
Morganistic - Fluids Amniotic - 11-Nov-05 09:45 PM
Bellows is clearly the best track on the LP, but what a track it is. A pounding, squelching acidy anthem that builds and builds. Fantastic.
A Guy Called Gerald - FX - 01-Apr-05 01:09 PM
Specific hate was Gerald's rebuff (and an updated version) to all the fuss he'd had getting 808 State to finally credit him with actually writing Pacific State (when in 808 State).
