"this is the first compilation album from tokyo's minimal techno house label, lantern -- organized by mondii, who also runs the plop & spekk label and naoki shinohara, who is a party dj and the compiler of the album. the 11 tracks of over 70 minutes on this album were selected with the concept in mind of "artists who create highly-addictive tracks, both good for home listening and for the dancefloor." the album starts off with a hazy minimal dub tune from the russian producer martin schulte, followed by trimsound owner leif's popping rhythmic tune, and once again, another track by martin schulte, written in collaboration with his russian mate, mr. dee. the compilation moves on to geoff white aka aeroc's edgy skillfulness, a bumpy hard tune by arctic hospital, a special, deep track by mojuba's sven weisemann, a rolling, sexy tune by top producer markus fix, atmospheric tech-house by till von sein, uplifting piano-house by background's andy vaz, a detroit-ish techno track by the owner of mojuba, don williams, and a chilling downtempo vocal tune by the famous glimpse collaborating with cadenza's lee van dowski."
