 I don’t know how this has happened, but original rave nutters The KLF
have had some of the rarer albums made available to purchase on iTunes.

It’s a bit of a surprise because these album are sample-tastic jail bait,
and one of them was not even officially released at the time (such as The White
Room Original Motion Picture Soundtrack from 1990, which differs considerably
from The White Room, which was released to international acclaim in 1991).

Pick of the bunch of KLF album re-issues, for me anyway, are both the
band’s ambient albums from 1990, Chill Out and Space (which is sometimes
credited as artist name Space). Both albums were made in collaboration with Alex
Patterson, who went on to form the mighty Orb, and his influence is palpable.

Similar in style and structure to The Orb at their most out there, both albums
were cut from tape recordings of live ambient dj sets, and feature a gentle
shower of found and pre-prepared sound to make you feel like you’re
floating on a cosmic river. You can easily get lost in these records. To
resurrect that old cliché, they really take you on a journey, maaan.
Underground culture hasn’t felt this psychedelic in a long time.

The KLF are one of the greatest “joke” bands of all time, and I
don’t mean that in a “comedy band” or “wacky”
way, I mean more in the style of the Merry Pranksters, or the Bonzos.
Situationist humor. They took their original name (The Justified Ancients Of Mu
Mu) from the Illuminatus! trilogy, after all. They pushed some sharp critique
but mixed it up with a liberal dose of the bizarre. Just look at that picture of
them with Tammy Wynette. It’s genius! Niall OConghaile
