5 stars Here is definitely one of my all time electronic favourites. This is much more than a simple album, this is a pyramid, a milestone of abstract musical pictures, speaking directly to mind and the most introspect side of human soul. All tracks contain creepy, sometimes dreamy ambiences embellished with electronic effects and collages. Totally captivating and hypnotizing from the beginning to the end. No big difference compared to their previous "Rejector" but the continuous sound forms are more immersive and consistent. The double album can be listened in one time because all tracks are flowing and floating almost as one single composition. To accompany the sustained & almost static tones and vibrations, we can occasionally hear some discreet electronic clicks, surprisingly hypnotic and repetitive. The minimal approach interacts with buzzing, rumbling melodies. All tracks develop "doom" like organic sounds. The material is absolutely not complicated but sumptuously efficient, reaching its objective without any deviations. Deep cerebral soundscapes which blow away a large part of efforts produced by the Berlin progressive electronic scene. This dense, spherical electronic excursion reaches the aesthetic level and musical brilliance of Ambarchi, Nyblock and others. Chillingly intense!!!
