i agree that it's a great release but the kompakt label output isnt all like that. the idm & experimental sound on the sub rosa vs kompakt comp is due more to the Sub Rosa camp than the kompakt guys. The Kompakt camp's sound rests firmly in the colognesque techno/tech-house groove with the exception of the Dettinger cd which is a little mellower than the other Kompakt releases. I suggest you check out the Koln Kompakt 1 compilation cd to get a better taste of what Kompakt has to offer. Check out the Kompakt website at: http://mad-net.de/kompakt/kompakt.html If you enjoy the Kompakt sound you may want to check out Jorg Burger's new Popular Organization label. The releases by The Modernist and Trinkwasser are wonderful.
