#DiggingInTheShelves No. 8
Various - The Mururoa Project
Rephlex (1996)
https://www.discogs.com/release/95756-Various-The-Mururoa-Project

This EP against nuclear weapon testing seems all too timely right now. Good cause, not a great sounding vinyl. [1/2]

Track: Beverly Hills 808303 - Pain In The South Pacific

#DiggingInTheShelves No. 7
Orb - Little Fluffy Clouds
Island Records (1998)
https://www.discogs.com/release/73028-Orb-Little-Fluffy-Clouds

This record has survived surprisingly long in the shelf, and it always seems to be better than I remembered. Danny Tenaglia's Downtempo Groove and Adam Freeland's Remix are similar laid back takes on the subject, but Freeland's breakbeat version wins over Tenaglia's housier remix. I do like them both. [1/2]

Track: Little Fluffy Clouds (Adam Freeland Tsunami One Remix)

#DiggingInTheShelves No. 6
Mr Velcro Fastener Featuring Laser Squad - Electric Appliances Remixes
i220 (2000)
https://www.discogs.com/release/47855-Mr-Velcro-Fastener-Featuring-Laser-Squad-Electric-Appliances-Remixes

Classic Mr Velcro Fastener from 2000. The first golden era of Finnish #electro. Original hasn't lost any of its luster over the years, still funky as ever. Very danceable. The Mat 101 remix goes for a more squeaky electronic sound. The reinterpretation is interesting, but the sound is a bit too high pitched.

Track: Electric Appliances

#DiggingInTheShelves No. 5
Unit Black Flight - Tracks From The Trailer
Giallo Disco (2014)
https://www.discogs.com/release/5714000-Unit-Black-Flight-Tracks-From-The-Trailer

We're in synthwave country now, and very much in the John Carpenter inspired territory. Not my favourite from the Giallo Disco label, but a good record nonetheless. [1/2]

Track: Into The Zone

REVEAL's PRC takeover is now available on YouTube. Everyone really showed up.

Playing order: Rimini Express, teemup, VOLPEVOLPE and Son of 8-Bit

#DiggingInTheShelves No. 4
Low Tape - Road Valley
X-Kalay (2019)
https://www.discogs.com/release/13031623-Low-Tape-Road-Valley

"Road Valley" is spacey Detroit influenced electro. "Red Lights In Ma Eyes", "Why Is Life So Strange" and "Acid Television" go instead more into UK electro territory with tracks from Radioactive Man and Carl Finlow coming to mind. And "Technovia" is something that wouldn't have sounded out of place on F-Communications. Excellent EP and still one of my favourites.

#DiggingInTheShelves No. 3
Sababa 5 - Sababa 5
Batov Records (2022)
https://www.discogs.com/release/24309920-Sababa-5-Sababa-5-

I stumbled onto this Tel Aviv band a couple years back via a single of theirs and this album became an instant buy. Music is a blend of different Middle Eastern styles and 70's funky vibes. Album itself is instrumental and fairly laid-back, as the cover would suggest. Hard to pick a favourite from the bunch, since listening to it whole carries me to a happy place.

Track: Lizarb

Aphex Twin - Windowlicker

Tekonivel - Sirkus
Puu (1996)
https://www.discogs.com/release/3565-Tekonivel-Sirkus

Big thanks to @breaque@icosahedron.website for the initial idea and encouragement.

And what a start, this EP by Mika Vainio under the Tekonivel alias is such an irreverent banger.

Track: Klovnit
