(VA) Minimal Electronics: Volume 1

I love the internet.

You can find so much stuff out there, created by music fans of all stripes.

Case in point, this three-volume set. I know absolutely nothing about it, other than some people have put selections from it onto their podcast/internet radio playlists.

This is the music of dark, German nightclubs in the late 70s/early 80s. This is what you would hear if you were in tune with what was happening in the electronic underground during that time.

However, not all songs are from the original Post-Punk Era. Indeed, you'll even find a cover of Nirvana on a subsequent volume (which I'll be featuring later this week).

This didn't come with album cover art, though I did find the image above somewhere, in relation to this collection. So I've reproduced them for all three volumes.
