New 808 State EP "Initial Granada Report" out 12 July 2019

Bataglia seems to be the strongest of the tracks and was the one that certainly got the crowd going at Bluedot.

As it's catalogue number BOBSTATE, a nice touch would be an 808GREAVES mix of one of the tracks further down the line, a tribute to the legend that was BOB Greaves that presented Granada Reports back in the day.

after hearing yesterday's good news, I had a dream last night that 808 called the 2nd EP "The Other Side of Midnight"
paying homage to Tony Wilson's show on Granada

I don't know, but my guess is Final Granada Report?

[Mark808]

My money is on Subsequent Granada Report

Tokyo reminds me a bit of Kraftwerk - Elektro Kardiogramm. You can mix Bombadin chants over the first track Ujala. I still miss the album 90 days with the orchestra stabs and synth portamento riffs. The old school flavor. Like how 808 State brought back some sampling. Be interesting if they brought back Martin Price. People say he was a genius.
