Speaking of comps here's another one, this time on Ratskin. This one features 215 artists over a whopping 99 tracks. Triskaidekaphobia (13000 Milli Seconds) is it's name and it's a ridiculousy busy comp. If you imagine a normal compilation being something like a quiet country road, this behemoth is like a massive 215 car pile up on the M1 with live 24 hour coverage from overhead copters and at the same time the badgers decide they want England back and they mount an attack starting at the scene of the accident. Featuring unreleased tracks from Matmos, Venetian Snares, White Mice, Sword Heaven, David Scott Stone, Richard Devine, Eat Tapes, Wobbly, To Live And Shave In LA, Blevin Blectium, Thrones, Leslie Keffer and tons more. It's a ridiculous concept for a record but then I'm all into that. After years of hearing far too many records for my own good this huge sprawling mess is fantastic fun. Seriously stick it on random every time you hear it and it's like a 100 albums in one go, There's no way on earth you'll remember any of it... electronica, (some harsh and some not so), punk, thrash, electro, experimental, comedy all mulched up into an entertaining musical soup. Cheap 'n all... on ratskin records.... Anyone remember those old Slap A Ham 7"'s with about 60 bands on?? This ain't a million miles away...

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

This collection documents artists working all over the world, with these pieces having a reference to the " contemporary time famine" brought on by the technological complex of which none of us can escape from. These aural documents of justified schizophrenia fight fire with fire, and pry away at our rotting attention span.
