Various - The Throne Of Drones




You know, I really should have been quicker off the mark by just going with the Asphodel connection. I have so many of the label releases that I was buying a long time ago: Invisibl Skratch Piklz; The X-Ecutioners; Rob Swift; Mix Master Mike ... they were also releasing Otomo Yoshihide, Cristian Marclay, KK Null, Daniel Menche, Zbigniew Karkowski, Zeitkratzer and whatever lies behind the letter z.

Admittedly, I am thinking out loud but that's because I hadn't connected things up before. My relationship with the label was initially with the turntablist releases. I've spent a lot of time with the Drones compilations and the thread throughout the Asphodel catologue is something so obvious it's like finding something brand new ... but it was hidden in plain sight. Within the context of the label's aesthetic, these compilations make so much more sense to me.

So ... erm, yeah. It's a CD. It's not MP3.
