Various Artists – Nyahh Records: The Alien Territory Archives: A Collection of Radical, Experimental & Irrelevant Music from 1970s San Diego
This is one of those rare records where I advise my less advanced listeners (Georgian students, I’m talking to you) to prepare for something different. This barely qualifies as music.

Kotra is his alias for extremely hard techno. I’m not sure you can dance to this, as it’s deeply aggressive, bordering on noise, yet it’s Continue Reading
