A collaborative reissue with the label 〈TÓXICO〉, curated by NARCO MARCO—a key figure in the Swiss electronic music scene, a hardcore collector who has introduced niche sounds as a staff member at the Bern record store “OLDIESSHOP” and as the founder of 〈HOT JAM〉! This compilation features 10 handpicked tracks from the underground scene immersed in analog gear, specifically songs originally released on cassette. The selection ranges from new wave pop to EBM and minimal wave. Through free-form synthesizers, rhythms, and the nuances of the French language, the compilation radiates the raw, hands-on DIY energy of the scene. You can listen to all tracks from the tracklist.
