Electronic music and the city

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

I recently came across a number of experimental electronics albums that dealt with the city in one way or another: V/A - This Place is Dreaming (about Brussels), and V/A - The Sound and the City. Also, I am aware of stuff by Mark Bain on the World Trade Center.

Does anyone know of albums that "do" similar things?

thanks in advance!

There are the Destination du Monde series. At present they have Barcelona, Mykonos and Manchester. I don't think thye are necessarily about the particular city, more the choice of DJs who reside there. Not my cup of tea personally, but here's the link:

Wasn't that Brasilia album eventually understood to be some kind of joke? On the artist's part, I mean.
