Though they seem to have been around forever, this is only the second label compilation from Seed, the left-field label dealing in the far-flung outposts of electronic music (the first is changing hands for silly money on the web). Seed have been busy; throwing parties in disused prisons and underground stations and releasing music that is about as far from the mainstream as you can get, so maybe another label comp' wasn't high up their list of priorities. Here they give us a selection of IDM, Techno, Acid as well as some slightly more esoteric music that at times verges on the challenging. Well, what right minded genre pushers don’t make us feel uncomfortable from time to time? The likes of Alexander Robotnik (not Italo disco as some would have you believe - I don’t think there is much that Mr Robotnik has done recently that would fit in to that genre) Neil Landstrum and recent Warp signing, The Doubtful Guest provide the stand out tracks in my opinion. Definitely not for everyone but I have a sneaky feeling that that’s just how Seed like it.
