I guess electronic music doesn’t immediately come to mind when you think about nerdy music, but I’m rather nerdy, and I enjoy electronic music, and I know a lot of nerds who are really into it. While I’ve been a fan of Hybrid for quite some time, their 2008 Sound-System_01 release caught my attention as a 2-disc remix album of film and commercial electronic music.
The first disc pays tribute to film composers such as Harry-Gregson Williams, who you should know from his work on the Metal Gear Solid series, as well as tracks from Babel, 28 Days Later, and Kingdom of Heaven. The second disc is a more traditional electronic experience with remixes of top electronic acts like Sasha, Quivver, and Long Range. Needless to say, it’s an interesting piece of work and definitely something to look into if you’re a fan.
