The first release on the n5MD, MiniDisc only imprint, is a compilation simply titled md1. An excellent group of talent has been gathered up on this release including some better known acts in the scene such as Arovane and Neutral and some up and coming acts such as Precenphix and ML. The disc starts off with the Autechre-esque track “Eopi” by Spark and quite smoothly into Arovanes “levd/a:ctrel”. Arovane presents a song in his Atol Scrap mode, and the track is one of the highlights on the compilation. The majority of the tracks on this MiniDisc, are on the more mellow side of IDM but a couple explore more of a straight up ambience: o2 (Mike Wells of Gridlock)’s “00002” and N and Neutral’s uncharacteristic “Recoil.” Precenphix experiments with great success on a track that blends ambient pads with frantic breaks. An excellent start for a new label!
