I've been listening to this for a couple of months now. I'm pretty backed up on albums I want to review. This album is a compilation of electronic artists from Mexico. It was released in 2004 on the "Soundsister label":http://www.soundsister.com/. There isn't much online in English about this compilation so I don't know much about it. What I do know is what it sounds like. It's a fairly ecelectic album but much of the tracks have a similar feel in regards to sound. It's branded as pop electronic and I think that would be fair to say. The sounds range from 8-bit electronica, glitch, to homemade casio techno. It's a pretty laid back album. Much of it reminds me of Lineland or Plone. You're not going to throw down and have a crazy party to this music. I don't even think it inspires mind blowing thought, but it is a very pretty album and the songs aren't threatening. Some of them are downright cute and sometimes I need to hear that. Check it out. I've picked a selection of some of the tracks that I liked. There are a couple on the album I could do without but it's not all bad.
