Comment: there are presented 26 tracks which are reconstructed on the basis of cut-ups of the tracks of seminal electronic combos from the years 1955-1984. Thereby it can be said this vast amount of pieces embodies a wide array of (experimental) electronica tendencies and branches, however, all of them are intriguingly accomplished - at times showcasing brain-centric aspirations, at times more disco-oriented bleeds, at times more synth pop oriented bouncy vibes, at times showing up nihilistic industrial abrasiveness. The traces hark back to such artists as Kraftwerk, Giorgio Moroder, Throbbing Gristle, Vangelis if to point out to just some artists over there). In a word, It is a remarkable, sweating work by Robbie Martin.
