Got to say... buy this CD.
I can't remember the names of individual tracks right now, but it
features Rob Gordon's work as Forgemasters, A1 Project, Black
Knight, erm... and some others. There's also a collaboration with
Richie Hawtin on there.
This bloke's been involved with so much top music over the past
ten years or so. He's worked on an absolute stack of Warp
releases, especially the earlier ones, and as a producer/engineer
at Sheffield's FON studios (stands for Fuck Off Nazis. Cool.)
he's worked with just about everyone English and northern.
The compilation CD's overriding style is sparse techno with a
heavy black British reggae influence coming through loud and
clear.
Get it. You know it makes sense.
Damon.
