С Новым Годом! Мы Желаем Счастья Вам!= Happy New Year! We Wish You Happiness!

Nina Kraviz knows that January is usually a rather bleak month. Thus, she's tried to raise the spirits of Trip label fans everywhere by delivering this surprise New Year present: a tidy, eight-track compilation of previously unreleased cuts from the imprint's growing family of contributors. There's much to banish the January blues, from the all-action acid-techno intensity of Buttechno's "Rostokino Acid" and the mildy aggressive, off-kilter industrial techno hypnotism of PTU's "Mstera", to the buzzing, machine-fired dancefloor psychedelia of "Noise Psychosis" by Carlota and the sparkling, Autechre-via-Moscow bounce of The Mover's "Track One". Throw in typically sludgy, out-there workouts from Vladimir Dubyshkin, the trip boss herself and Snazzy FX's Dan Snazelle, and you have a fine collection of floor-focused experimental techno cuts.
