Heartless techno? Not here, my friend. Over the course of eleven years and six albums, Kirk Degiorgio has carefully crafted future soul that proves the passion of machines need be neither cold nor heartless. This compendium provides an admirable overview of Degiorgio’s stellar career, barring the omission (due to corporate licensing snafus) of any material from his time signed to Mo’ Wax. Nevertheless, So Far (So Good) shines with gems like the liquid and driving “Isatai” from his seminal ART imprint, and 1996’s thumping funk workout, “Queen Constance.” Required listening for androids who dare to dream.
