The Best of Kompakt

Founded in 1998, the German label Kompakt quickly became an essential outlet for leftfield techno. While often described as a "minimal" label, Kompakt actually explores a dizzying variety of sounds—including lush ambient music, melodic trance, banging house, and much more—and this collection features Kompakt anthems from underground dance luminaries like Superpitcher, The Field, and DJ Koze.
