Review by jackthetab Mar 22, 2008
Has a similiar cover to klf's chill out, yet instead of sheep
in the fields, there are wolves.

Airlock - Fake OD -
A dark minimal drone that slowly creeps into a DJ Spooky sounding drum and bass montage. It is quickly replaced with more ambient drones.

Pomassl - Mipp ppon -
Some experimental ambient music highlighted with a revolving speaker to speaker sample. The music quickly becomes a fluster of metallica samples, only to let you off easy.

Aube - Bitten flaw -
A high pitched tone radiates into a slowly evolving melody.
the track finally closes with minimal dark tribal bliss. This
is very reminiscent to Rapoon.

Panacea - Demolition desaster
KLF samples galore with noisy gabber psychotic mayhem. Heavy beat samples "extreme terror". Hard hitting and ever evolving ear mashing blissfulness. Pulsating and addicting murdering and marauding music. Lo-fi live panacea with klf samples take over till the end.

Fmvsjl - 971023fmvsjfl01 -
Experimental samples converging into an artistic array of abstractions. Noise and drones build to a sudden ending.

DJ Pure - Dekon 3 -
More experimental samples. These samples mold into a dark chaotic static and noisy synths. The music is pushed to synth limits, Grinding at your delicate ears. Tt begins to push your sanity further and further away from true reality.

Alois huber - Morose mote -
Dark, slow moving demonic ambient with wolves howling.
The track is just too short.

I-F - Quest -
More upbeat, yet still minimal sounding. Lo-fi dark industrial synths with interesting computer vocals. The lyrics are rather humorous. Do not let the fact that it has vocals deter you. Trust me, you will love them.

Epy - Exp -
Experimental drum and bass mixed into a psychedelic noise pattern. A short and simple track that has a lot of talent.

Fennesz - Sportster -
The noise begins to immediately spin us into a collage of orange sunshine bliss. Slight drum and bass undertones which never amount to more than a mere sample.

Ryoji Ikeda - Interference 001 -
Low bass rumbles become the forefront of a hovering tone. Would this be considered ultra minimal drone? The drone slowly oscillates in you brain. If the room is not completely silent during this track, then you miss the power the track has on your mind.

Otraslab - Hadacol
Another ambient drone track. This time it is more alien sounding. It is rather reminiscent of an alien singing. Slow moving, but does have a revolving melody that keeps your interest. The track slowly fades out.

highly recommended.

Speaking of wolves, Sabotage Communications adopted an Alaskan alpha-wolf named Nimrod for this project.
Review by barticle Jun 25, 2003
If it wasn't clear from the title that this album is in some way a tribute to The KLF's ambient classic of the same name then it's certainly obvious from the artwork. Impressively the graphic designer was able to take the idyllic pastoral scene from The KLF's sleeve and replace every sheep with a wolf! Even the wording of the sleevenote text is a parody of that on the original.

However, sonically ("musically" doesn't seem the right word to describe some of the content) it's really a totally different affair! The compilation features several abstract works consisting sometimes entirely of weird noises, harsh sounds, dentist drills (eek!) and sustained high pitch tones while other, more listenable, tracks cover ultra-minimal ambience, lo-fi breaks and dirty electro. The final mention should go to Panacea who is the only artist to follow the sleeve's KLF theme - he starts his offering with various samples from a couple of KLF tracks (America No More and the album version of What Time Is Love) before dropping into heavily distorted 4-beat gabber, complete with the "extreeeeeeme terrooooor!" sample from the DJ Skinhead track of the same name. So... overall quite an "interesting" release! ;)
