- The three-disc package features dozens of Soma classics, plus DJ mixes by Slam and Silicone Soul.
As part of their 20th anniversary celebrations, Soma Records have put together a three-disc label compilation, due for release in September.
Soma Records was founded in 1991 by by Stuart McMillan and Orde Meikle, better known as Slam. It grew out of a club night the duo threw in Glasgow with Dave Clarke, and has since become an institution of underground club music, releasing everything from English techno acts like The Black Dog to Felix da Housecat (as Sharkimaxx) and the first few 12-inches by Daft Punk. Soma Records - 20 Years provides a three-disc cross-section of the label's catalog, which by now packs in well over 200 releases. The first disc presents 11 unmixed "Classics," such as Funk D'Void's "Diabla" and Slam's "Positive Eduction." The next two discs are mixed, first by Slam, then by the label's other key duo, Silicone Soul.
