Compilations like these are potential 'adverts' for getting people to hear new artists, so you'd think they'd put decent tracks on. This was my first taste of Mira Calix, and it does sound rather weak - R8 with a few Ae sounds which goes nowhere. Broadcast was ok - quite surprising stuff for Warp I think. I wish BoC would do something shocking - they're good, but never surprise me.
