There was a meme going around: in '97 electronic music was supposed to sound like the future, and now we just want to sound like '97.
The more things change etc - here's an album from '95 that wants to sound like the future via '81's Computer World. Minimal analog electronics chomp and chirp and electric voices repeat themselves again and again mutterboarding "jap an ese . elec tronics" or something, over and over. It's got no sense of pacing, little sense of melody, and its too derivative to be the future - Elektroids don't seem to understand what made Kraftwerk great, or otherwise just can't recreate it 2.5/5
