1992-1999 COLLECTION 1 by BALLET MECHANIQUE

For the first volume in the "Secret Sun" series, Open Channel For Dreamers offers up a selection of unreleased work by Jeroen Borrenbergs' work as Ballet Mechanique, written and produced between 1992 and 1999

First up is "See You", a cheery, bass-heavy electro track rich in cheery IDM melodies, which is quickly followed by the intergalactic ambient techno bliss of "Zoo Is Out", where mangled analogue bass and Black Dog style electronics buzz around a bustling dancefloor groove. Elsewhere, "Electro" is a razor-sharp, funk-fuelled electro-acid workout, while "Under The Surface" sounds like "In Sides"-era Orbital after a fistful of sleeping pills.
