One of the techno marvels of my youth era... I remember to hear it hundred times with headphones, recorded in video tape from MTV (when it was a good music channel) Una de las maravillas tecno de mi juventud... Recuerdo escucharla cientos de veces con los cascos, grabada en videocasette de la MTV (cuando era un buen canal de música)
I never realised the main chord bit was off the prisoner (when patrick mcgoohan watches the ‘Speedlearn’ broadcast -‘obvious now lol) until I watched the series years later. Fits so well I just assumed it was HIA playing it.
Good to know, I thought this was original since it is from Colourform album, but on the label it does say Speedlearn (Empathy Remix) - Where did this version come from?
Well, this version of Speedlearn features on an excellent compilation called Ambient Dub Volume 2 - www.discogs.com/Various-Ambient-Dub-Volume-2-Earthjuice/master/21125

I ´ve got on vhs. Classic video. The best song of HIA.
Top ten of ambient dub /ambient house of 90s.
Thank you for edited.
Same! Was gonna post that I have the video. Do you still have the trippy glasses that came with it? ;)

Spent great nights in Brum @ the Oscillate night and saw these guys play live many times.
#notenviousatall ;)
used to have this on a chillout video! its been a while iv heard! as great as it ever was!
Anyone who loves ambient dub should check HIA out. Pretty much the best music project there is in the genre. Very unique and distinctive style.
This was on the first CD I ever bought. Only recently did I realise it's a tribute to The Prisoner episode "The General"
What a nice tune :) I love it :D thx for upload :) and thx to the person who made this tune :D Positive :)
If not mistaken the background was sampled for wagon christ's Bend over!!!
@l3m4nt Yes, Luke Vibert uses this intro.
a track on Big Soup,i think ? with some speeded up voice in it.
same problem over here :)
i've heard that intro in another song (maybe Luke Vibert?)
@blijlevens100 It's actually taken from a show called the Prisoner.
LONG TIME AGE , CHILOUTZONE , MY BEST PIECES ,
god i have a song in my head that i dno what it is and its not any of these songs i been looking for but i know its along the smae line...
Did you eventually find it in the last 12 years?
This is the "Frontal Lobe" mix. I still prefer the version on Colourform, but this one has grown on me quite a bit.
i have the 12' and the ambient dub album

This just shows that MTV had much better music MTV Party Zone, Chillout etc...
This is some remix, good stuff, but original is better... My fave from the Colourform is the M+T=E/Re-Echo combo.
