The 5th release and possibly my favourite, well maybe a 3-way tie with Woob & Qubism. Not to be confused with the ever so talented, Kompakt label co-founder Wolfgang Voigt’s Gas (Ha! That’s a bit funny). Mat P Jarvis is the man behind this ambient techno jewel that feels/sounds like a spaceship ride to the Cygnus constellation. Another tidbit of info on the label; Artists got to select an animal image from the Oxford Scientific catalogue. Can you name the animal on this cover? If you guessed Invertebrae Ctenophora reward yourself with a listen on headphones.

I think this would be my definition of a perfect label. I just love everything this label offered us from the brilliant & complex ambient compositions to the beautifully consistent designed Digipaks. All recorded using Roland Sound Space RSS 3D sound imaging. Living from 1994-1998 they gave us 18 pieces of ambient music supremacy. This was the labels introduction, heralding in the frog adorned compilations (of which were 6). It’s a faultless release.
