Quite unlike some other so called Electro labels, Metropolis waited almost five
years since the inception of the label to release their first sampler. Then,
instead of with mostly album tracks, "Electropolis" actually
includes new and exclusive material by Front Line Assembly, informatik,
Terminal Sect, Necrofix, and Haujobb. With the exception of the Snog,
:wumpscut:, Funker Vogt, and Evil's Toy tracks, the material is
exclusive remixes. This means for the cost of a sampler CD, the consumer gets
almost 2/3's new material. Even the non-exclusive material is from
releases that appear only on imports and not on domestic versions of Metropolis
albums. Other labels could surely learn a lesson from this burgeoning Electro
label from Philadelphia. Release a quality compilation like "Electropolis", and
you will have fans praising your every action.
