This compilation came out in
1999 on 4AD. I was fortunate enough to get a copy at Renaissance
Montréal for a toonie (2.00 $ Canadian). I always enjoy hearing
compilations. It`s a nice way to discover new bands / artists. A nice and long
compilation (14 tracks = 64.19 minutes). There`s various music styles at work:
beautifully crafted ethereal indie (Michael Brook), country / indie
ballad (Brendan Perry, Kristin Hersh), dream pop (Cocteau Twins,
The Hope Blister, Lakuna), indie rock (Cuba, Pixies,
His Name Is Alive, The Breeders), downtempo loungy
electronic music (Thievery Corporation), synthpop (Gus Gus),
country / folk rock (Mojave 3), and minimal indie rock (Red House
Painters). Recommended if you can find it. Another well invested
toonie.
