Album Notes & Community Reviews
Raster-Noton co-founder Olaf Bender delivers a masterclass in razor-sharp, heavily distorted minimal techno. The album focuses on incredibly rigid, propulsive electronic rhythms built from clipped static, sub-bass pressure, and metallic synthesizer stabs, defining the cold, mathematical aesthetic of the German glitch-techno scene. It remains a highly respected, clinical exercise in dancefloor minimalism.
