Reviews
- Can sound horribly dated to the uninitiated now, but when I first heard this back in 1990 amongst other tunes, it was a revelatory experience. If only I had been maybe a few years older than my then 16 years, perhaps I would have been able to attend one of the 'orbital' raves where these tracks were recorded <sigh> but that didn't stop me appreciating the energy and enthusiasm of both Adamski and the crowds you can hear whistling and yelling in the background.
With N-R-G crashing into the UK charts in that same year, bringing the bleeps and beats to the ears of older generations who derided it's cheap and cheerful sound; it became a bit like a beacon to people like myself, representing 'Our' music precisely because older people didn't understand it. With the worldwide hit of 'Killer' later that year (with Seal on vocals), Adamski became one of the first sort of dance 'pop' stars. Unfortunately the follow-up lp to 'LiveAndDirect' was a disappointment and very much over-hyped. Still, this lp stands as testament to what one guy with a sampler, keyboard and computer can do live.
Respect. The Bassline Changed My Life.
