Minimal Compact

Remastered reissue of Minimal Compact's 1981 mini album, which includes the classic track "Statik Dancin". 180 gram vinyl, download code included.

Fronted by vocalist Samy Birnbach (aka DJ Morpheus, freestyle DJ extraordinaire and compiler of the Freezone series), Minimal Compact were a cult band during the '80s. They blended funky rock rhythms and incisive guitars with flavours from their native Middle East. The band were active from 1981 to 1988, and released six studio albums and one live album.

They had a large and fanatic following all across Europe and the USA, where some of their tracks became underground club favourites. The band's line-up consisted of Samy Birnbach (vocals), Rami Fortis (vocals, guitar), Max Franken (drums), Berry Sakharof (guitar, vocals, keyboards) and Malka Spigel (bass, vocals).
