Review: The sound of gnarled, shredded steel and a pulsating cyber-rhythm from Container kick-starts this compilation on Public System, and there is a similar, albeit break beat-led sound on MYNTHA's "Creepin Neva Sleepin". Overall however, Place of Memory... is a varied affair. E-Saggila's "Palm Bass" is a mellow slice of electronics and both YABBOQ PENUEL and Privacy deliver moody electro breakers in the form of "La Rencontre" and "0x33 Key" respectively. On a dance floor tip, there's the dank drums and droning electronic groove of Beau Wanzer's "Blood Type Gravey", while Mick Wills impresses with a low slung, souped up take on Liquid G's "The Power Of...".
Review: Barkosina Contradictions, Jerome Tcherneyan, Maja Petrovna are the Years Of Denial, an outfit constructed initially for Oliver Ho's Death & Leisure imprint...the sort of label to provide us with constant streams of pseudo industrial goodness. The trio come through with two potent dance floor weapons, fit and ready for the contemporary dancer - a halfway house between techno and something much more reminiscent of post-punk. "We Operate On Each Other" and "Numeric Affairs", including the dub version, will be smashed out by many, that's for sure. The lesser known Menad Veyl appears for the first time on vinyl, "Paint The Ossuary" unleashes a torrent of percussion with a hard edge, followed by "Who You Could Not" - a techno piledriver that heads deep into the wormhole.
