Which did you see the cd or the 2x12"? The cd contains a lot of unique downtempo techno and experimental electronica. It may be somewhat of a challenging listen at first to the warp/skam/rephlex crowd but after a few listens you'll begin to hear that it actually takes the sound from the above labels a little further towards the experimental side. A few artists you may recognize on this comp are plan 9 (steve pickton & mark broom), ravers over venice (akin from irdial), td5 (voiteck anderson), low res, mr hazeltine (john tejada), and a lustmord remix too (i forget who he remixed). The 2x12" contains four of the tracks on the cd as well as four new very dancefloor-friendly tracks by low res, mannequin lung, r.e.a.l.m., and lucid lung (john tejada & the PR guys). All four of the new tracks incorporate highly innovative percussion and funky synth loops into unique techno masterpieces that really take my breath away. if you like somewhat minimal techno in the mark broom, john tejada, or even mike ink then you would like this doublepack. As i've said before, you really need both verions of the comp to get all the best tracks. -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
