This deluxe 2001 reissue of the Prodigy's 1992 debut, Experience -- a landmark rave disc-- includes a bonus second album featuring remixes and B-sides. The original disc, which has been remastered, includes the singles "Charly" and "Wind It Up," while the bonus disc makes the new set a must-have for fans.
All Music Guide
One of the few noncompilation rave albums of any worth, Experience balances a supply of top-this siren whistles and chipmunk divas with Liam Howlett's surprising flair for constructing track after track of intense breakbeat techno. Almost every song sounds like a potential chart-topper (circa 1992, of course) while the true singles "Your Love," "Charly," "Music Reach," and "Out of Space" add that extra bit of energy to the fray. More than just a relic of the rave experience, Experience shows the Prodigy near the peak of their game from the get-go. [An expanded edition doubled the runtime of the original, offering copious remixes only included previously on CD-5 or 12."] John Bush
