Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A great idea and a great CD!.......2004-01-28

I found the above review incredibly biased. Yeah, the Bexar Bexar track is very good but there's some other absolutely gorgeous and inspiring tracks on here. Ukiyo-E - Val Doonican, Mokira - Hes is very sexy. Moneyshot - Trocchi Travelled Inward is one of my most favourite tracks, with a distorted circling beat which sort of reminds me of Orbital's remix of Madonna's Bedtime Story. Beans - Panderosa is like a cross between Godspeed You Black Emperor and Brian Eno. The Balky Mule - Asterion, Cytokine - Movement, reminiscent of Enigma's Traces (Light and Weight) and the Heaven's Night music by Akira Yamaoka on the Silent Hill 2 soundtrack. Chib - ((o)), and of course, Bexar Bexar - Moore.
This is possibly the only compilation I've bought (not including soundtracks) that I've been totally happy with. It's a fantastic idea to release a demos album because it gives us all a chance to hear what we otherwise would'nt have. Fat Cat have signed up some superb bands - Sigur Ros, Mum, Black Dice. And this album showcases some more artistic and mesmerising tracks from artists with great potential. It also shows us that we all start somewhere, that we can work hard and produce some excellent demos too. Raw, D.I.Y home-made tracks never sounded so alive.
