Shortly after the release of their Southeastern United States compilation, "Discordia," EMPiRES presents this third compilation of electronic music from across America and internationally. The theme for this collection took shape quickly with many of the contributed tracks possessing lo-fi, glitch, or raw qualities, while other tracks sparkle with stunning high-definition clarity. With this contrast and with a few tracks that move throughout and touch on both ends of the spectrum, we are proud to present "Degrees of Fidelity," a collection of works capturing the emotion and magic of the antiquated and crude, the cutting-edge and precise, and various points in between.
