Headphone Commute Review

Headphone Commute | 01/13/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Here's a showcase of all aspects of IDM at its finest - intricately cut up crispy beats and microscopic glitches layered over minimal reverberated soothing melodies that make my brain tingle in all the right places. The seventeen consecutively numbered tracks shun from attaching any special association or interpretation that comes with subjecting music to titles. Instead, Ben Lukas Boysten organizes his "collection of filtered impressions and tiny interludes" into a treasured and very private "digital-acoustic diary". The Berlin based producer strikes with confident and at times dark rhythms offering top notch production techniques. In this perfect soundtrack for the committed, Boysten offers us a shadowy glimpse into a slightly deranged mind. And when all of the specks settle down, the melancholic stillness of the music reveals an undeniable reflection of oneself."
