This time on 14tracks:

“14 tracks: Mission to the Technoplex”

Entranced by a phantasy of cybersensual Gno Age discopop and electro, we jack into a selection primed for a night at the technoplex. Emotions are high, synapses sparking to databursts of augmented Electro, Tekgnopopp and discobliss simulations from a rogue cast of artists, programmers and conceptualists whose identities only become more blurred as the night gets deeper. On the main holofloor Egyptrixx seduces with the fluidly pitched futurism of 'Chrysalis Records', while Maria Minerva and Psychic Reality own your senses with implanted memories of '80s disco and '90s House before Grimes turns the simulated space into tingling mesh of piloerect skin with 'Halfaxa'. 36 floors below, Hype Williams get blunted to the bunker beats of 'Mitsubishi' while the gynoids of md0's 'Mwahaha' perform their routine four times an hour alongside Sex Worker's breathtaking rendition of 'Rhythm Of The Night' in the nearby neurogenous zone. As the gas starts to kick in we're trapped for a full 13 minutes in the ambiguous hole of Design A Wave's 'Iso Bum II' before Twins' slyly off-kilter 'Priority Report" starts to make the simulation flicker and dissolve. In the end zone Martial Canterel, Virgo and James Ferraro offer three possible ways to complete the adventure before you retire to a 3' x 3' x 8' living unit in the rental quadrant, serotonin depleted, jaw gnawing and yet strangely satisfied.

I had exactly the same comment in mind while discovering the 14 tracks newsletter.
Then i clicked and bought the selection pronto without any pre-listening.

Opinion so far : not bad, a bit too much dub for me, but it sounds better with Virgo Four… (begining of the selection).

Anyway, fully satisfied with boomkat service.
