What a find! Some really cool tracks on here. My personal fave is Eight To Infinity - where can I get more of their tracks?

Sixteen bands and over seventy-five minutes of techno, EBM, electro and synth-pop music or a
combination of these genres can be found on this compilation album.
Athis album will not get boring as it brings a wide range of styles.
There is the indutrial pop by The Sepia, the poppy EBM track Calling Aphrodite by Shane Savant or
the synth-pop tunes with techno influences by Etikemic. Furthermore you can enjoy and mixture of
gentle beats and a piano ballad by A Modern Effigy or songs from Xero/G, Lowtechnicians, Blind Before
Dawn, User On The Grid and others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Synthpop revival, September 18, 2002

Welcome to the synthpop revival. This is a great sample of music showing the diversity, quality and innovation of the underground synthpop scene. With synthpop being touted as the next big thing these could be headliners of tomorrow. I particularly like the dark cynicism of Macondo and Eight to Infinity - definitely bands to watch. Enjoy.
