This compilation acquaints the listener with the ambient, experimental, and
techno sides of this well-known Belgian label. Even acts who are not readily
recognized for their ambient/ atmospheric styles, such as Numb, DHI, and PNE,
display their more experimental/noise sides. The track by Sielwolf (remixed by
Lassigue Bendthaus) is a brutal, slaughterhouse dance track that will pound you
into submission with its intense, annihilating beat and its speed-fueled techno
rhythms. Lassigue Bendthaus provides a track which shows why this band is
considered one of the innovators in the techno scene. Even though this track
clocks in at almost 13 minutes, this song manages to always keep the listener
involved and does not turn into a mass of repetitive rhythms and beats. On the
whole, Disc 1 provides the listener with more of a danceable and techno style
with many tracks being accentuated with a ritualistic feeling; Disc 2 gives the
listener more of an experimental and ambient flavor throughout. But often the
different styles from each disc are blended together on individual tracks on
both discs, which brings a very complete and cohesive feeling to this
compilation. (Kevin Congdon)
