I know, it would be some work, but could you list the tracks? I guess, that a lot of us (those that like electro) already have a lot of (old and new) electro records and I don't feel like buying what I already have.

"The Message" is Electro? OK, "Scorpio" and "The Message II" (Melle Mel) are but the "Message" is pure Rap to me.

YES, you got it! I also like some Drum'n Bass, but Electro really gives me the kick. For many years I forgot about electro and then last year I found it back. Good luck I did! :-))) BTW, Sean Deason (Matrix Records) just anounced a electro release on the 313 list:
