Reviews & Discussion
It took me awhile to save up for this mammoth collection, but it was well worth every pain. This is a must-have for every electronic music fan who missed on out Portion Control the first time around. Every release they put out on vinyl from 1981-1988 is remastered here. Aside from the collection that came out in the mid-90s called "The Man Who Did Backward Somersaults", 90% of these tracks have never been released on CD before. For fans of the newer Portion Control, this release is an excellent starting point to the music of their youth and, without a doubt, a virtual history guide to electronic music in the 1980s.
Never before has so much electronic music history been contained in such a tidy and well-constructed box. If you've ever been curious as to who or what Portion Control are about, here's your chance. Almost everything from their first run (1980-86) can be found within "Archive's" vast scope. Classic albums such as 1982's "I Staggered Mentally" are finally available to a wider audience. An entire disc is dedicated to their singles, which include the seminal cuts "Raise The Pulse" and, of course, "Chew You to Bits".
Upon purchasing this thing, you may find your faith in a lot of the so-called "innovators" of electronic music faultering. Only Cabaret Voltaire's "Attic Tapes" set comes close to this monster of a release.
Equally impressive are the posters which come with this set and interestingly enough amalgamate several PC designs into their layout. This is immaculately planned out and will further demonstrate how Portion Control are more vital than ever. No collection should be without this.
