Berceuse Heroique 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Before his much talked about appearance as FRET live at Berlin Atonal last year, not many would associate former Napalm Death main man Mick Harris with the sound of techno. But he was surprisingly active in the Birmingham techno scene, alongside contemporaries such as Surgeon, Regis and Terry Donovan at the legendary House Of God back in the mid '90s. The tracks on Report/Fixed and Process 1 & 2 were originally released in '96 on ZET, but re-released here on Berceuse Heroique and capture the zeitgeist of the club in its heyday - these are just some of the tracks he released under the Monrella moniker up until 2002. They still sound impressive today, with their furious and hypnotic style of stomp that took its cues just as much from classic Purpose Maker and M-Plant as it did from O'Connor's revered Downwards imprint at the time.
