:
A good underground electro band from the US that shows a lot of
promise, they also mix some other influences into the mix as well.
From their web site:
"10 Track Debut CD ranging from old School Industrial/Gothic to
Ethereal EBM. This cd is in limited supply and will be out of print
coming in 2003."
If you enjoy this album, should pick up the original while you still
can...

Today, the 22nd of July, AMOK celebrates its anniversary: 5 years ago
AMOK was founded! Only a few people know that AMOK originally started
as a 'sub-label' group of NBD in order to release music that did not
fit into their releases of the techno genre. When this MP3 group started
in 1998 we only had three sites and today the number has considerably
grown - here is the original list of sites AMOK started out with
(this is a preview of our site list from July 1998);
Sites:
~~~~~~
SITE NAME SPEED STORAGE STATUS SITE-OP
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
Dxxx Xxxxx xxxxxx T-3 16GB WHQ Xxxxxx
Mxxxxxxx E-1 9GB HQ Xxxxxx
Rxxxx xxxxxx Xxxxxx E-1 9GB HQ Xxxxxx
(Note: the third site is the original NBD WHQ. For those with added
curiousity, please let me draw your attention to the "site op" row.)
The first AMOK release, The soundtrack for "Need For Speed 3," ripped
straight from the PSX (this would be a nuke nowadays...), was set for
release on July 22, yet with a chaotic start in organizing the group the
date of this release had to be changed to July 24. Listed below is the
exact information on the infamous premiere release of AMOK:
"As a sublabel of NBD the official leader was NBD leader. Back then
this was Abomb-99 a true pioneer of the mp3 scene, and without him things
would for sure gone different for nowaday. Abomb-99 died in 1999 due
cancer, we won┤t forget him, even tho he wasn┤t our founder he was our
father. The following weeks we completely detached from NBD and got our
own image."
Out of our ranks grow friends as well as competitors; we affiliated far
more than 100 sites in our perpetual existence and have over 6k releases,
we hereby salute all of our friends and competitors that play by the rules
and contribute to make the scene an enjoyable place.
When you ask us nowadays, "What did you do for the scene?" we promoted our
definition of 'good music' and are among the 5 oldest of MP3 groups still
active, we asserted some of the basic rules for the first MP3 release
guidelines as well as promoting the usage of SFV for MP3's (thanks to a
good friend of ours who coded glftpd extensions back then, widely used)
When we take stock of ourselves nowadays we are more highly organized and
exist secured somewhere in a private ircd laminate, but mostly we are proud
that we never lost our roots that made us do it for nothing other than
the music we like.
MORAL DiSCLAiMER: We are very aware of the fact that our releases
contribute to the growing sale losses of record companies.
Unfortunately our style primarily targets small, independant labels
that need sales to survive.
For these reasons we ask you not to distribute this release on public
sites or P2P tools; if more and more receive their music from the net,
artists and labels will have to face even less sells than nowadays.
Please do not consider this release as a substitute to the original, but
only as a way to check out and learn about new music.
We absolutely do not approve of DJs or other individuals that earn
money from pirated music - Don't let them get their hands on it!
By buying the albums you like you disperse the guilt we feel by
releasing this music - Enjoy the music and be fair with the artists!
YOUR support is required to keep them financially alive and producing!
