Two CD set. 2020 collection. Super Sonics is a celebration of the multi-faceted British alt. Rock/pop scene which flourished 1992-1998, midway through attracting the term Brit Pop. Compiled by DJ, curator and contemporary scenester Martin Green, who ran the London club Smashing during the period. The scene was a fusion. Grunge was out Glam was in. 70's charity shop tops, jeans went skinny, fringes floppy and sportswear vintage donned. Soundtracks, TV themes, Moog grooves, Punk, Indie, Hi Nrg, Glam and New Wave hit the decks. Different aspects of 20th Century musical culture collided to create something new. Super Sonics is a slice of 'single' heaven from across the range of musical styles which sprouted. Such styles were referred to as the New Wave Of New Wave, The Scene That Celebrates Itself and more until Brit Pop was coined to cover it all. This collection includes tracks by Powder, Linoleum, Mantaray, Huggy Bear, Duffy, Pram, Spearmint, Rialto, and many others.
