Wonderful compilation of synth experimentation from 1982. This was previously posted by No Longer Forgotten Music about a year ago, but it was unindexed, which made it pretty difficult to differentiate between bands/songs.
Minimal Wave reissued the Sluik tracks from here on to a 7 inch, but it looks like they're all sold out.

Get this. It's wonderful.
