Types - A Kudos Sampler
1994 Kudos Records
Notes:
A fine collection of mostly UK techno. Hard to find a compilation that
has what some consider the best As One, Stasis and Fugue tracks all on
one comp. Having the Fugue track featured here (maybe only place
released on cd) in itself is worth noting and getting this cd. Fantastic
song in Contrapoint. Isatai is possibly my favorite Detroit inspired
British idm / techno track of all time. 5 minutes of a lifetime of
music. Don't sleep on the balearic track from Conemelt. Strong chill out
track there combined with trip hop downtempo in White Dopes on Funk
give this compilation some nice depth and everyday listenability. Round
out this cd with solid but dated cuts from Pentatonik, Dave Angel's
other worldly Rotation track that kicked off his own label with the same
name, Synectics, Eco Tourist and Sandoz and you get a very solid and
nearly fantastic compilation of 1994 British techno.
