Album Notes & Community Reviews

A brilliant collaboration bridging the gap between German post-rock precision and New York turntablism. The trio weaves incredibly precise, highly atmospheric post-rock instrumentation and subtle indietronica rhythms around I-Sound's cold, heavily manipulated turntable scratching, resulting in a deeply hypnotic, textured listen.
