What an opening salvo, huh? More to come in the following months, including (hopefully) some exclusive eMusic content…

    I downloaded 11 of the 12 in the eMu Dozen (already had The Field). Thanks, Circuit City (ironically, Circuit City carries none of the Kompakt titles in their racks — I looked).

    Thanks, eMusic.

    Hey Yancey or Todd, I just downloaded the Alla album “Es Tiempo”, i was really looking forward to this but it seems the songs are wrong- the tracknames are right and everything, but the music is from a different album and artist.. will this be fixed?? thanx!

    Weird. We will check on that. If there’s a problem, it will definitely be fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

    Todd or anyone else:

    If you had to pick just one Kompakt title what would it be?

    It really depends on what you’re looking for, to be honest. What kind of electronic music have you liked in the past?

  6. 6 Adamm

    I’ve liked all kinds, but I tend to prefer glitchy to dancy (I guess because I spend more time dealing with glitches than dancing). So Clicks and Cuts, Matmos, etc.

    Adamm… I generally prefer the same kind of electronic music you prefer… IMO, The Field From Here We Go sublime is an amazing record & would be an outstanding download regardless. Until today, it was the only Kompakt release I have ever purchased, and (according to iTunes) I listened to it more than any other CD I purchased last year. For what it’s worth…

    Thanks. I’ll check it out.

    Thanks Yancey.. I already used the 12 downloads on it, but then when I started listening to it, it didn’t sound like the tracks from their myspace!

    >frowny face<. I just used my last 12 downloads to get Pop Ambient 2008 and it ended up giving me the MP3s from Pop Ambient 2007, which I had already bought from the Kompakt digital music shoppe last year. Can I get the credit for the 12 downloads, or the correct Mp3s? Thx.

    oh man. yeah, we’ll get this fixed, jay. let us check up on it tomorrow. sorry about this.

    I just downloaded Pop Ambient 2008 also, and I’m trying to figure out if I’m having the same problem that Jay is. The Track Listing I received is:

    1. Oceans Day - Markus Guentner
    2. Sag Alles AB - All
    3. In Lourdes - Andrew Thomas
    4. Shiny Garden - Andrew Thomas
    5. Camilla - Thomas Fehlmann
    6. My Pazifik - Ulf Lohmann
    7. Ice Storm - Klimek
    8. Fembria - Popnoname
    9. Nymphe und Schäfer - DJ Koze
    10. Kappsta 2 - The Field
    11. Kristall - Ulf Lohmann
    12. Sparks - Markus Guentner

    That matches the Track Listing for Pop Ambient 2008 that appears in Amazon.com. Isn’t that the right disc?

    adamm: i would also check into dettinger on the ambient side of things. it’s clicky, just as the field is (i suppose), but in a different way. i really have grown to love both of his full-lengths quite a bit. try “oasis 2″ on oasis.

  14. 14 todd

    kinda confused, jay: pop ambient 2007 only has ten tracks…

    ok thanks!
