Electronic Body Music is a term whose origin stems from the Belgian group Front 242. It was chosen to describe the powerful, cold and minimalist electronic rhythms that defined the structures of this new musical genre. The movement quickly garnered followers in the underground scene during the 1980s and early 1990s, especially in Europe, before breaking into the rest of the world. This comprehensive set is a compilation featuring artists like Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire, Nitzer Ebb, Click Click, Meat Beat Manifesto, Borghesia and The Neon Judgment - groups that changed contemporary music and unleashed the era of machines.
