2016 four CD set. Two years in the making, Close To The Noise Floor is a 61-track set exploring the origins of electronica in the UK. Featuring tracks from key figures on the cassette label underground alongside early releases by future stars of the movement, this is part primitive rave, part synthesizer porn and part history lesson. Enthralled by the mysterious electronics of Pink Floyd, Hawkwind, Gong and German Kosmische artists such as Tangerine Dream, Harmonia and Cluster, and inspired by the DIY ethos of punk, a quiet revolution took place across the UK in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The rise of the microchip and the advent of affordable synthesizers enabled countless artists for whom guitars, drums and bass had become old hat, and in grubby bedsits, unremarkable living rooms and art school halls across the British Isles, UK electronica was born. The underground, fueled by cassette exchanges, co-operative vinyl compilations and a thriving mail order network, quickly began to stretch the boundaries of sonic experimentation. Close To The Noise Floor explores every corner of this fascinating and often overlooked chapter in our musical history. For proto synth-pop look no further than 100% Manmade Fibre and Spoon Fazer, whilst British Standard Unit and Five Times Of Dust lay out techno templates which wouldn't take full form until many years later. Elsewhere, the synthesizer laden ambient music of Zorch and the found sound collages of A Tent sit comfortably alongside early forays by familiar names - Blancmange, The Human League, OMD and Throbbing Gristle - in over four hours of futurist, entirely modern music.

PRICEY and sometimes don’t stay in place!
These have a wonderful mild flavor, no mint burn, moisten your mouth for several hours, and generally always stay put, in fact if you want it out before fully dissolved, it takes a little effort with your fingernail, because they are supposed to stick and stay in place! ALSO, I DO NOT PUT ON MY GUMLINE LIKE THE INSTRUCTIONS SAY, I STICK ON THE ROOF OF MY MOUTH FOR DISCREET CONFORT!!
I really do recommend for DRY MOUTH!! I DO NOT CARE FOR THE SHARP EDGY METAL INDIVIDUAL PACKAGING AT ALL, but the bottle is very pricey!!

Absolutely work!
These are absolutely fantastic. Bygone are the days of sucking on some sugary sweet Candy. Xylo melts stick as they say they do. I have found that they don't stick to artificial teeth as well. They last for hours they're comfortable. The mint ones aren't overpowering. These are a dry mouth blessing. For sure use them at night and during the day.

Invaluable sleep/ dry mouth aid
Cannot live even one night without these Xylimelts. Taste great. Stick well to mouth. Remember: poisonous to dogs. Now we have a dog so I no longer buy the bottles of loose melts as I can spill in middle of night and lose track. Extremely nerve wracking. Using the sheets of melts which you punch out one at a time. Easier to insure dog’s safety.

They may have saved my life!
These are fantastic for people with dry mouth! They have been a lifesaver for me. I HIGHLY recommend them to everyone! I carry them in my bag as well. Thanks to the one who invented them. I feel normal again!!! Easy to pop in mouth and they last overnight too.

Wow!!!

XyliMelts were recommended by my new dental hygienist who said she was told about them at a dental conference by a well known hygienist "guru".
I ordered them at around four in the morning because I was up as usual because if my chronic pain syndrome and the dry mouth caused by my pain pills.
I got them quickly via Amazon and have not been up again this time of night due to the dry mouth. Now I'm up due to the pain but can fall asleep quickly because of the XyliMelts, they work great!
I only use one at a time and it lasts around four hours and I put in another one and go right back to sleep. It's so easy to push the little tab out of the cellophane and just hold it on my gum for ten seconds and voila! No more dry mouth. I used to wake up with my mouth so dry there was no saliva at all in my mouth and parched was an understatement, my mouth felt like sandpaper!
Now it's always nice and moist and the taste is extremely pleasant (I didn't get the mint). I had to have two teeth extracted four days before Christmas and my dentist said it was due to the dry mouth and that he sees patterns like this in patients with dry mouth and I'd probably lose more teeth unless I came in for cleanings and check ups three times a year instead of two and we kept a really close eye on my teeth.
I'd been using Biotene gel but it wasn't keeping my mouth moist long enough. I'm extremely happy with XyliMelt! I'm also 100% sure I won't be losing any more teeth due to my night time dry mouth because it's a thing of the past!
Thanks to amazon prime shipping I got my XyliMelts very quickly, and my nighttime dry mouth is a thing of the past!
I know they don't claim to stop cavities but without the dry mouth and my new commitment to see my dentist three times a year and to always always brush my teeth before I fall asleep (no more Rolos in bed after I've done my final teeth brushing), I'm confident my dentist won't see a tooth loss pattern in my mouth.
