This is a very ambitious collection for such a young label; among the up-and-coming artists are a number of established and respected names. The style leans toward the ear-friendly, poppy side of IDM. For me, Marumari, I am Robot and Proud, Greg Davis and Sybarite (with an honorable mention for Tycho, aside from a grating voice sample it's a fine listen) provide the standout tracks. On the downside, there is an overabundance of time-worn formulas, unmemorable music and weak vocals. Unfortunately, few of the up-and-coming artists make much of an impression.
