Thanks! I chose it because of the atmosphere and also because I loved reading 1984, which definitely had some influence on the whole idea of a digital post-apocalyptic world. The first thing that came to mind was to submit a Deltron track, but I thought someone else would probably do it.

What is October's theme and is it replacing the general monthly comp?

Been on vacation the last week, so I haven\t been around to reply

I thought I'd keep October's theme a secret for another week, but suffice to say it will be the opposite of cyberpunk. That should give you a rough idea of what to expect.

I believe PMO is doing the regular comps and I quite like them as a way to just get stuff I like out there (I've often submitted tracks from albums I've reviewed). We haven't really talked about whether or not one should replace the other. I just thought themed comps were exciting and thought to revive the bi-monthlys.

I think i like themed comps more than normal comps so i wouldn't mind them being replaced, if there's a lot of support for it to happen then why not?

this is fucking cool, despite the conflicting ideas of cyberpunk already mentioned (locust, dillinger.. caretaker?!)
cheers m'dears!

Just out of curiosity, what did you find inappropriate about the track I chose (The Locust)? About 75% of why I chose it was the feel of the music and the other 15% for lyrical content.

^ I thought it fit mood-wise. I didn't pay attention to the lyrics.

i said that before i'd heard it, listening to it now and it definitely fits 'the bill'. don't ask me to write out 'the bill' though... it's an aesthetic rather than a genre, no doubt this has been said a thousand times already. it's a very good compilation

also can i just say TETSUO!!, because i love that film
and on the japanese cyberpunk ting:

Yeah, I was wondering this about Dillinger.
