Mindless is a good term. Probably the worst track they ever did with 'Fashion Party'. Ironic, if typical that they should both be on their most feted album. Too much repetitive dance-dirge one-track nonsense with just one syllable words repeated. Typical tape-deck stuff for tweaked out clubbers. One wants to forget trash like 2 Unlimited not be reminded of them. AOB you can do so much better, as you've proved with the rest of the album & all your subsequent stuff.
I still have this album. And speaking about the weird sound @ the min. 2:20, I remember the 1st time I heard it, I thought it was a error recording. Even I wanted to change the CD in the Music Store. LOL
hell yeah, i used to listen to this album on casset tape back in like '95. let's see: i would've been about 13. they used to play it at the local skating rink too.
the knock at 2:20 is a reverse beat and sounds slightly loud but on production and on album release it is level sounding, its just the uploaders sound (i.e you tube) so is fine
Ace of base´s first album is a classic...no matter what people say about the band nowdays...nobody can´t denie that the album is pure gold....there is no dead track in this album.
Republica's first album is very good and alot like this. I remember when people were asking the same question when referring to duran duran first two album's and someone recommened Republica ,they were right.
@gingerbreadmalta the pop on 2:20 is a super sterophonic-analog sound of a "whip". It needs a crossover to work it's full magic....going from one speaker to the other.
My fav track on this album! Basslines like this paved the way for deadmau5

I agree! Their first album was techno and progressive while the second was poetic and a bit soothing. I love both albums.

i thought that knock at 2:20 was my dodgy mp3, it sounds like an error
I love this tune sounds along the same lines as Electronic's first album. Can anyone suggest some similar sounding songs?

@gingerbreadmalta i always thought it was a massive chunk of earwax dislodging (listening on earphones). i'd have to rewind it to check.
