Editorial reviews

Description
As the '90s wore on, DJ Spooky's music became increasingly more aggressive and rhythm-based, to the point that 1998's RIDDIM WARFARE featured guest rappers. This early effort, on the other hand, represents the opposite end of the spectrum.More akin to Spooky's landmark album SONGS OF A DEAD DREAMER, NECROPOLIS is full of the dark ambience that earned his style the term "illbient" and gave him his ghostly nom de plume.
Billed as "a compilation...mixed by DJ Spooky", NECROPOLIS is more of a mix album than its successors, but it is simultaneously a more ethereal and personal statement. With a dominant presence of swirling electronic sounds and a relative absence of syncopated rhythms, NECROPOLIS is ultimatelycloser to an early Cluster or Tangerine Dream album than toanything one might call "electronica".
