RELEASE DATE

Back in the 1990s, video games were still largely seen as nerdy: fun, sure, but basically a guilty pleasure that you'd soon grow out of. The release in 1995 of
wipE'out''
, a lightning-fast, razor-sharp, futuristic racing game that helped to launch the PlayStation in Europe and North America, changed all that. This was a game that looked and sounded both adult and cool, the kind of game you would put on display in your living room, rather than hide away under your bed. Key to this was the fact that
wipE'out''
borrowed unashamedly from the clubbing experience and electronic music, in a way that put it at the heart of progressive mid '90s culture.
wipE′out′
′ also sounded like a new rave dream. The European version of the game included music from
The Chemical Brothers
,
Leftfield
, and
Orbital
, the kind of fashionable game syncs that were almost unheard of at the time. Equally striking was the game's original music, which came from Welsh musician
Tim Wright
, aka
CoLD SToRAGE
, by this point already a veteran in the video games world, having worked on the music for Amiga titles such as
Lemmings
and
Shadow of the Beast 2
. His music for
wipE′out′′
was, if anything, even more extreme than the big-name syncs, mixing the accelerated beats of drum and bass with the pure synth rush of trance to make music that sounded as breathlessly exciting as playing the game felt. These tracks were burned into the brains of millions of gamers; the soundtrack to a generation of late-night anti-gravity racing, as the sun gingerly rose beyond the curtains. But they haven't, perhaps, quite got the respect they deserve, something that this release will address. Featuring remixes by
