• Third installment of the New York Noise series focuses on early electronica/minimal synth stuff (think influences on today's darkwave bands, i.e. The Knife). Not sure where'd I'd rank this in terms of the other entries in the series, but probably in a tie for first with New York Noise, Vol. 1. Also features James Blood Ulmer, Martin Rev (Suicide), and Boris Policeband, among others.
