REVIEWS FOR
SMALLFISH RECORDS: 'Second compilation from machine.records and it features a fully loaded track list from artists such as STEREO MINUS ONE, SUPERIMPOZER, ANATOMIST, MATT COOK, ORCOP and many more. Edgy, dense electronics with a harsh edge and the kind of rough beats and programming that Schematic used to be famous for. This is more experimental though, to be fair and although there's a fair amount of melody here and there it's generally all about the beats and noises. Well worth checking out if you haven't heard of them before.'
