This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
“Welcome to the world of pure underground sound,” says Brooklyn techno DJ Adam X by way of introduction, and he’s not kidding.
What follows is 72 minutes of cold, soulless techno complete with metronomic beats, hypnotic grooves and repetitive bleeping — 18 obscure tracks from a like number of equally obscure artists, all joined into one mind-numbing megamix. This would sound great in some rave-powered warehouse at 3 a.m. At home, it’s unengaging at best — and annoying at worst.
