808 State are an English electronic music group formed in 1987 in Manchester by Graham Massey, Martin Price and Gerald Simpson. Taking their name from the Roland TR-808 drum machine and the “state of mind” the members shared, they released their debut album Newbuild in September 1988 and secured commercial success in 1989, when their song “Pacific State” was picked up by BBC Radio 1 DJ Gary Davies and charted for 11 weeks in the UK.
Quadrastate is a mini-album by English electronic music group 808 State. It was released in July 1989 through Creed Records. It contains the original version of “Pacific State”, one of the most popular tracks by 808 State, which later made the band famous after extended airplay on BBC Radio 1 led to the band being signed to major label ZTT Records.
