Album Notes & Community Reviews
The Can co-founder continues his eccentric solo trajectory, leaning heavily on pioneering sampling techniques and global rhythmic patterns. 'Rome Remains Rome' interpolates everything from papal broadcasts to dense, funk-driven basslines into a surreal pop framework. The album highlights his visionary approach to treating the recording studio itself as a primary instrument.
