This CD is part of the new series of re-releases of Kama Records’
earlier titles. These albums were originally released on cassette
tapes (!) in mid-late 90’s in very limited quantities, which
makes this material is quite rare and impossible to find for many
listeners. However, this music deserves a good deal of attention
- it is still as special and unique as it was in the mid 90’s.
At last these albums are getting a new life, reprinted in digital
format and repackaged in nice cardboard sleeves. Hopefully this
time they will find their way to more music enthusiasts all over
the world.
Atomic Reaction is one of the main projects that helped form
and establish the electronic scene of Izhevsk. Originally started
as a trio, the band quickly became a duo and is still active today
taking part in various remix projects and compilations published by
Kama Records. Mega Pop is their debut album featuring 12
tracks of analogue synths and drum machines. Although the material
varies in style, it’s mostly based on simple rhythms and childish
melodies. This stuff will definitely attract those people who miss
the days of early WARP or Rephlex, that atmosphere is pervasive in
these pieces. Tracks like No Name will remind you of the
early Autechre; Derton is reminiscent of warm productions
of Suction Records; slow electro-ish Lost could be something
released by the legendary Clear Records. Mega Pop may not
be the freshest album around, but it is a good representation of the
90’s electronica. For fans of the classic stuff.
