Notes:
The original 1991 release misspells "Central
Industrial" as "Central Industrail".
The 1992 and 1996 releases are slightly differently cut to the
1991 release, with track beginning and end points varying.
However, the times listed on the tracklist were not updated,
leaving both these releases stating incorrect running times. The
1996 US release features a bizarre miscut, with the first half of
"Pulse State" being tagged on to the end of "1 In
8", leaving even more running time errors on the tracklist.
The 2001 re-release corrects this, with the later cut being used,
and track times being updated to suit it.
"Accelerator" is the first full-length album by Dougans
and Cobain, although it is as much a compilation as anything.
"Stolen Documents", "1 In 8", "Pulse
State" and "Papua New Guinea" had already been
released on various EPs as FSOL tracks, and "Calcium"
released as a Yage track. However, the tracks are all mixed
together in a primative version of the soundscape technique they
would come to use on their later albums. Stylistically, the album
is still very much techno, with straight up 4/4 beats on most
tracks, and less complexity and depth than the group are known
for. The original release features the first album artwork for
FSOL by Buggy G. Riphead. The album was re-released with a couple
of bonus remixes in 1992, after "Papua New Guinea"
became a chart hit in the UK, and finally received a US release
four years later. Jumpin' & Pumpin' celebrated ten years of
the album with the 2001 re-release of it and the "Papua New
Guinea" single.
