Awesome...my skinny CD & jacket of this very unfortunately was kindly donated to the Salvo's nite clubbing section by my wife.Its ok we are still merrily married .But finding it on youtube has me made ..go the biscuits 😶(" you had it yet ?")
My friend recently blew my mind and unearthed from the depths of my memory this track. I used to listen to this a lot as a kid (I don't remember where or how. I don't think I or my mum ever had this album), and when my friend played it at her house late at night while we were drinking and playing board games, it was like a revelation. I hadn't even _heard_ it in over a decade, yet it came back to me clear as day. What a trip that night was.
Belated reply, but the prevailing influence here is what became known as French House, or to a lesser degree, "filter house", which sums up the aesthetic. The era of Akai samplers, samples from disco albums, and house music beats felt super exciting at the time. It was heavily marketed, typecast pretty quickly, and also suffered from the legal ramifications of sample copyrights, which definitely hurt this wonderful album too (and others of us also on the Creative Vibes label who also were sample-heavy).
@@hellodavidryan great answer thanks men, I was asking because I wanted to look for more tracks like this one on Spotify, sadly what you say about copyright might be the reason this PNAU album is not on the app
@@jmarianod7 You're welcome, and you're in for a treat! If you google "oral history sambanova" you can find the wonderful article on Junkee by the equally wonderful Kris Swales, who spoke with those involved as to why this is a "lost album". It's a great story. As a disclaimer, Kris is a former bandmate and friend, and I was on the Creative Vibes label myself in another act that also had a number of sample copyright issues. All credit to PNAU for being so beautifully open about the various phases of the band and their music. It was a funny time to be sure.
wow. I'd always thought they had constructed it with samples from separate sources. bassline, guitar, keys. and programmed drums underneath. hmm killer track though but wow.
@@aisbit wow that would've been awesome, yeah it would be great to have video footage of that. Well, I filmed them a fair bit with my mobile at Wine Machine on Saturday night, god their live show is great!
