Digital Poodle - Work Terminal
1st in a series of vinyl reissues by the Canadian EBM band, Digital Poodle, beginning with "Work Terminal," an early ‘90s electronic dance floor anthem, that sounds decidedly contemporary in 2015. "Work Terminal" became nothing short of a local EBM anthem, a staple in all of Toronto’s thriving alt/EBM club scene, and even crossing over into the emerging techno scene, with Digital Poodle even playing alongside Detroit’s Underground Resistance, Jeff Mills, Kenny Larkin and Joey Beltram at 1992’s The Realm Of The Techno Gods Festival. Digital Poodle’s popularity in the EBM scene spread, and their music was picked up for license on Hyperium in Germany, and Metropolis in the USA. But this banging EBM anthem, a tried and tested dance floor killer, has really never seen a proper vinyl release, until now, and is rounded out by remixes by Opal Tapes’ O/H and Ghostly’s Solvent. The 12" is also rounded out by an impossibly rare 1991 cassette version, a much more clanging and ominous take than the original. Alongside O/H’s sludgy, furious techno version, and Solvent’s driving minimal synth reduction, "Revision! vol.1" offers a diverse set of dance floor killers for the modern industrial-techno scene.
