    This is an awesome compilation. It was one of the first things that I bought to get into electronic music. Pretty sure this is the only way you can own the song Evil Dust by New Order on vinyl. Plus it has October Love Song by Chris and Cosey which nowadays is pretty expensive to buy it on vinyl. Plus it has a bunch of other great tracks by awesome artists that have extensive catalogues and most are worth digging deep into their discography. It was pretty forward thinking in 1986 to combine some drum machine industrial funk tracks, ethno industrial bands, and artists on 4AD proving their is a link between street culture and boom boxes and gothic dudes in all black with eyeliner.

      Some great tunes on this album - the 23 Skidoo and 400 Blows still sounds fresh today
