There’s a revolution going on. Today kids who wanna rock are no longer tied up to guitars, instead they can simply switch their computers on and make a racket. Some people call it nu-rave or electrock, but with already so many factions and directions, labels are quickly becoming irrelevant. What truly matters is that rock and electronic music are being tremendously rejuvenated by this new bastardisation. Joining in the fun Wall Of Sound releases a comp that’s like a UK version of Kitsuné’s mighty Maison series. You get the hits (Gossip, CSS, Soulwax, Lo-Fi-Fnk), some new blood (Toyshop, A Human), not forgetting the West London label in-house protégés (Zoot Woman, Infadels, Shy Child).
