Radikal Presents 'Goth-Tech'...lol

It sounded interesting, but the tracklisting is a joke:

quote:
Welcome to the dark side of technology - Goth-Tech - a post-apocalyptic nightmare rife with electro-mechanical mayhem. After being introduced to The Mind Of The Machine, the ruler of this new industrial society, spend some time unwinding underground at the Transylvannia A-Go-Go nightclub and bar, where nocturnal sociallites gather for their rituals of darkness. Unfamiliar and uncomfortable with these gory rites, try to Escape only to find that Hell Is A Dancefloor and there is no way out. When your Blood Is Pumping from the sheer terror of it all, the only chance of survival you have is to Mash It Up with the Killer on the loose who is hungry for your blood. You shout Please Save Me to anyone who might hear, only for the ever-present "big brother" to reply We're Watching You and We Know What You Did. Frantically finding a way out and running to the edge of town, you are plunged into complete darkness. They have extinguished the stars (spente le stelle). You find a clearing in the forest where you sit down to enjoy the Silence. Instead, you are surrounded by the Sound Of Machines. They are everywhere, not-so-silent reminders of the new ruling class. Powered by an unlimited supply of Kernkraft 400, their strength and lifespan is potentially infinite. In the distance, you hear the revelers chanting in worship to their new god. No, wait! The chanting is not in the distance, it's in your mind! They've got you too... Wake up in a cold sweat only to find that the nightmare becomes your reality. Your Insomnia is so bad that you haven't slept since.

That's why it's cheesy...it's almost like they've selected the tunes just so they can fit into a story. C'mon "Goth-Tech"? Half these tunes aren't even dark, they've just been selected for their dark sounding title.

Some of those tunes are uplifting

Worst compliation ever.. If you really want goth stuff PSY/Goa trance really has the dark ambience around it

ok read my post again...whats wrong with the tracklist. Given that all the songs are mostly played out, and the title doesn't match, and that stupid description of the mix was cheesy...until you hear the mix, you never know.

sad init

most cd mixes by radikal records are pretty bad.. imo at least. they arent a very good label, but they do sign some decent stuff once in a while

Posted by mactheknife on Oct-26-2003 21:35:

i think that the name "radikal" pretty much says it all...i hate stuff that's intentionally misspelled so it looks "hip" or whatever reason they use...
