After one and a half decade and more than 380 releases, Compost Records bundles some of their
finest tunes as Various Artists digital download compilation albums.
The variety and full spectrum of Compost’s repertoire has never or rarely been presented in form of a musical genre compilation. These releases will be compiled or DJ-mixed by Compost’s artists and are available as digital downloads, except in some rare cases very very limited as 500 CDs.

Rupert & Mennert compiled already the Compost Jazz Selection Vol.1 & 2 and the Compost Downbeat Selection Vol.1, now they explored the experimental side of the Compost vault. You will find some leftfield classics from the early Compost days by Turntable Terranova (1996), Genf (1997), Nonplace Urban Field (1998), Felix Laband (2005), Fauna Flash (2001), and some abstract 
downbeat gems by Funkstörung (1996), Ben Mono (2007), Monassa (2003) and Alif Tree (2008) 
- of course all blended in a smooth mix.

they send their fine radioshow into the wide world. The show is currently re-invented. The Sound of
