Ninety
by 808 State
The 1053rd greatest album of all time
Ninety is 808 State's 1989 album from their early period, blending techno, acid house, and house with melodic and ambient textures. The record mixes squelchy 303-style basslines and machine-driven rhythms with lush synth pads and occasional saxophone-led melodies, balancing club-oriented energy and more atmospheric moments. It reflects the late 1980s UK rave and electronic scene and showcases the group's interest in marrying dancefloor drive with experimental production.
