With last year's album 'Transmission Suite', one of the great British dance groups returned after over 15 years out the studio. Except, 808 State never truly went away: hits like "In Yer Face," "Cübik," "Flow Coma" and the supermassive "Pacific State" are etched into rave history. High-profile remixes by the likes of Aphex Twin, Grooverider and Bicep deepened that mark. Their new sound feels as in line with Swing Ting as it does A Guy Called Gerald. So 808 State have kept tabs with the evolution of a dance culture that they helped start right back in the mid-1980s, which makes them a perfect act for Dekmantel Festival in the here and now: heritage, but hyper-fresh too.
