Funkyhell
''funkyhell'' (or sylized as '':funkyhell:'') is the second studio album by haloblack, released on November 1, 1994, by Fifth Colvmn Records. The album represented the band's musical shift from a guitar dominated syle into a minimalist approach to dark ambient and electronic music composition. Reception Aiding & Abetting gave ''funkyhell'' a positive review, saying "I love "dirty" electronic music albums" and " Bryan Black (aka Haloblack) has crafted a fine set of experimental industrial tunes. Tom Schulte of AllMusic called the album "an impressionistic headspace, electronica incompatible for the dancefloors of even neo-gothic club nights." ''Last Sigh Magazine'' praised the contributions of the guest artists and said "it continues right where '' Tension Filter'' left off, the sound remains constant and is just as good if not better than ''Tension Filter''." More negative in their critique of the album was ''Option'', who was critical of "the relentless 4/4 beats, the cheap ...

Parker of ''The Wire'' criticized the mediocre writing and said "from the crackling interference, supine adolescent questioning and maladroit thudding of "Why?" through to the soggy bassline on the closing "Drugbeat". this is one long, unalleviated exercise in gloom and despondency."

AllMusic
AllMusic (previously known as All-Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the database was first made available on the Internet in 1994. AllMusic is owned by RhythmOne. History AllMusic was launched as All-Music Guide by Michael Erlewine, a "compulsive archivist, noted astrologer, Buddhist scholar and musician". He became interested in using computers for his astrological work in the mid-1970s and founded a software company, Matrix, in 1977. In the early 1990s, as CDs replaced LPs as the dominant format for recorded music, Erlewine purchased what he thought was a CD of early recordings by Little Richard. After buying it, he discovered it was a "flaccid latter-day rehash". Frustrated with the labeling, he researched using metadata to create a music guide. In 1990, in Big Rapids, Michigan, he founded ''All Music Guid ...

Contemporary Electronic Music
Electronica is both a broad group of electronic-based music styles intended for listening rather than strictly for dancing and a music scene that started in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom. In the United States, the term is mostly used to refer to electronic music generally. History Early 1990s: origins and UK scene The original wide-spread use of the term "electronica" derives from the influential English experimental techno label New Electronica, which was one of the leading forces of the early 1990s introducing and supporting dance-based electronic music oriented towards home listening rather than dance-floor play, although the word "electronica" had already begun to be associated with synthesizer generated music as early as 1983, when a "UK Electronica Festival" was first held. At that time electronica became known as "electronic listening music", also becoming more or less synonymous to ambient techno and intelligent techno, and was considered distinct from other ...
