Robots Dream Of Electric Sheep

This compilation collects some of the best and most individual electronic music made in New Zealand in recent years.

Subtitled - Scenes From New Zealand's Electronic Underground - it aims to stimulate and encourage the electronic scene as much as it does to represent it.

One side-effect of music created in bedrooms and home studios tends to be isolation, no one knows what anyone else is doing unless they make the effort to find out. This leads to some exciting innovations and techniques, but with the huge scope for collaboration and mutual remixing that electronic music offers, it's a shame to let opportunities slip by.

From the lush orchestration of Refrag and the slick upbeat electronica of Module, to the surreal mutant lounge music of the Tom Bosley Experience and the electro-rock fusion of Flying Dreamz, to the impossibly happy pop of Disasteradio and the Casiotone kitsch of Golden Axe, this compilation has something for everyone!
