Castle Von Buhler Presents: "Anon" (Disc 2)

Photobucket
This was another compilation put out by a label with an unusually, and misleadingly, kick-ass name: Castle Von Buhler. Comprised almost entirely of lackluster electronic "music", this record fails to be anything other than a huge let-down. There is one good song, though, and it's the first track, "Tuba Edit" by Eardrum. It's made entirely from 16-bit samples, and it builds at a nice, even pace, incorporating subtle, but effective key changes to keep things moving. I might check them out later...At any rate, all this compilation "showcases" is Castle Von Buhler's inability to sign anyone good to their label.

Hey, I hadn't thought about "('s rad)" in some time. "Let's Cruise (in a Non-Cruisin' Zone)." What a great freakin' song!
