Review of a past overdog: Steel - Steel

Steel by Martin Damm, also known as Speedfreak or Biochip C, is a hidden gem in the music world that deserves more recognition. Released on the label Mille Plateaux, which was associated with the prominent Techno label Force Inc., Steel is a departure from Damm's usual Hardcore Techno style, exploring more experimental and unusual sounds.

The album diverges from traditional Hardcore Techno by taking a unique approach that blends together elements of Industrial, Dark Ambient, Noise, jungle, electro, and drum'n'bass, resulting in a refreshing and novel sound. The diverse range of sounds creates a surreal and dark atmosphere throughout the album that is further enhanced by the use of samples from horror movies, TV, and other sources.

Steel is one of Damm's most experimental works, and arguably one of his best. The album showcases his versatility as a producer and his willingness to explore new and uncharted territory. Despite being almost unknown today, Steel is a must-listen for anyone interested in exploring the unusual and unconventional side of electronic music.

Overall, Steel is a brilliant and unique album that deserves more recognition in the music community. If you're looking for something different, Steel is definitely worth a listen.
