CD Reviews

Another brilliant release from Todd Durrant
Nicholas de Lioncourt | Virginia, United States | 07/22/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am rather thankful for the devotion Todd Durrant has for modern synth; this release is indeed well worth placement in your collection. From the darkwave lustre of Intricated and Pulcher Femina, whose respective releases I sought all as a result of this synth anthology to the Depeche Mode simulacrum of Perfidious Words (post-Violator era), I well-enjoyed this and the companion "State of Synthpop 2003". Of the reviewer who condemned the release I might only write that one should probably discredit his opinion as misguided."
Great Overview of Modern Synthpop
Rob Bentley | Salt Lake City, UT USA | 11/26/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This set of CDs is a lot of fun, and a great way to get back into synthpop if you've been away from it a while. I've discovered several of my favorite modern synthpop bands just by listening to this compilation then researching the songs/bands I like. There are two stinkers included, but all the other songs I found to be great and/or at least pleasant. I highly recommend this collection."
