- Nice compilation CD this one!
Compiled by Reincheque's Daniel Prendiville. 15
different artists with a variety of styles thruout. Household Names
kicks it
all off with "Bright Spot" a very quirky pop tune thats
very well crafted
indeed-catchy tune! Next up R. Stevie Moore delivers
"Dates" a rocking
brilliant slice of alternative pop with a punch! Ian C. Stewart
performs a
really cool tight piece of music, my first experience of his solo
music "Really
Fucking Good Instrumental" with some cool guitars & tronics.
Trance Jax kicks
in with some pure hard trance that smokes "Touch The Sky"
great sequences &
smooth pads shaking the dance floor! Digital Explosion provides the
listener
with a grooving explosion of very upbeat happy tronics. Mobility
hits you over
the head with "Melodic Phone" which reminds me a wee bit
of early Kraftwerk.
Neurotron 606 coughs up "Do Do Do (anything 4 u)" which is
full of samples that
you have heard a million times before by millions of electronic
artists Great
vocoded computer voice/vocals though which are the only thing that
holds this
track together, without them this track would be very repetitive
& boring. John
Nell brings the listener "Factory of Smiles" which has
some great noisy change
ups in it but a bit to poppish for my tastes, the main parts that
is. Franco
Turra e i Cuorl Esagerati brings "Serpente Di Qualche Giorno"
to the mix with
some great flamenco style guitar playing that absolutely rocks. J.
Mundok shows
up with "You and Me" a wonderfull catchy pop tune that is
smoking indeed, very
nice strange ending as well. Next up MJB presents "Float
Away" a rocking
freeform type piece that shakes the house-Honky Tonking indeed!
Midgaard Skalden
presents "Flestr Vissi That" a very laid back piece of
space/tronics combined
with some awesome vocals, kinda like space pop!!Cool piece. Label
owner Daniel
Prendiville offers up "Cologne" a wonderful fun electronic
pop tune all done up
Prendiville style, with smooth swirling synths & sequences,
catchy, catchy.
Nervous Sys-Op shoots in with "Dreamland" a lovely piece
of dark electronics,
pounding percussion & middle eastern chants. Mental Anguish
finishes it all off
with "Hebephrenic-Phinney Space Mix" a Tangerine Dream
type slice of space
tronics. All in all a very well put together compilation that is
sure to have
something for everyone. Highly recomended. - Chris
Phinney
