    Pure synths (no samples) and drums lead to an instrumental or melodic techno album. Made not for dancing, but for attentive walking.

  • The Smashing Pumpkins – [2000] MACHINA II / The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music

    A true case of an underground release. Uncompromising hard rock, akin to Nine Inch Nails marrying AC/DC, straight from vinyl.

  • Various Artists – [2007] The Silent Ballet, Volume III: Unfolding a Broken Heart
