Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by former Tangerine Dream member Peter Baumann, this release saw the German duo moving towards a more structured and rhythmic approach compared to their earlier, formless ambient works. The album elegantly bridges their classic krautrock experimentalism with a cleaner, almost proto-techno electronic aesthetic. The expansive, side-long title track demonstrates their continued mastery of hypnotic, repetitive soundscapes.
