    Mokujin.
    Fantastic pressing and as others have mentioned a quality booklet with beautiful snaps of the original 12s inners.
    Highly Recommend.

      There is not much in the way of electro on this compilation, maybe some predecessors of it but still a beautifully pressed album nonetheless. There is a great selection of positive, funky tracks and a nice little history lesson of the songs origins in the liner notes too. Worth the money.
