Elemental, reductionist approach to electronic music

"This is an LP of very challenging music, from one of the best electro artists in Germany, a country with an already rich tradition in everything electronic/cross-over. Although the music is layered and at times quite complex, it follows a reductionist path rather than a holistic one, analyzing sounds to their very essence. Rother does not use 'exotic' electronic instruments or colorful cliches to pass his message, but rather relies on carefully-crafted structure and form. The tracks are evolving, and they are all album-based, that means you will easily listen the record from start to finish.If you like your electro/synth-techno dark, deep and kinda old school, go for this release."

Must have!!!!!
