Comment: there is quite much to say about this 16-piece whole. In other words, one can write a solid review in alphabetic characters about it. The artist created the music on DIY modules built up by himself. It consists of two parts – three and four-voice interventions, and polymorphic vivisections. By its mood it is at times tumultuous due to intense noisy droning and whimsical glitched-out whirlpools, at times it used to fade away due to those oblivious guitar patterns being somewhere in the remote background. At times the aforementioned parts will fuse with one another or being the transgressive threshold for the other part. In fact, it is even more versatile than the full title of this album hints at it. It reminds me of my own musical doings while manipulating on my sampler Yamaha – by extracting sounds into very small units and moving them back and forth and searching for proper ones. In principle, it is nothing more or less than just (shape)shifting austere sonic waves and just bare signals to align them with one`s cerebral interface. Some magniloquent sort of improvised noise by its method and output. At times it chimes like a real, spirited embodiment of electricity (at QuadNand vierstimmig). By the way, I tagged the album partly as DIY, and lo-fi. Of course, it is the discussion point of considering any sort of electronic music as somehow lo-fi, or DIY. May it be a bit tautological? Pop-inflected music can be more clearly handled as hi-fi and lo-fi.  The overcoming outing is a part of the discography of Germany-based imprint Der Kleine Grüne Würfel.
