Minimal electronic. Lots of beats with ambient in there, too. Is this minimal techno? The second half of the album sounds a lot like Gas. I’m no expert on that style, but I can say it’s sexy 4/4 dancy electronic beats with atmospheric pads. The first half of the album is closer to reference points like loscil, Praguedren, Starcircleanatomy. Generally long (6-7 min) tracks with plenty of space and room to build. Berlin composer wrote the album during a snowstorm. No FCCs, all instrumental.
*1. Mostly ambient synths; slow eerie nighttime music. (7:15)
*2. Field recordings, found sounds, and lovely tape experiments. Wind-swept hypnotic ambience. (6:26)
3. Rolling waves of distorted samples; very restrained, chill electronic rhythm. (6:32)
4. Spacious echoey reverberations + beefy bass. (6:43)
5. Galactic, delayed synths, sexy space beat comes in w/ bass drum. (6:22)
6. Simple loop soup, minimal clubby churn. (7:39)
7. Bobby, stripped-down chill house(?) (7:22)
*8. Weird intergalactic, 2-chord, warped electronic dub disco. (7:09)
9. Phasered, repetitive space trip-disco. (6:55)
10. Spacey echoes on the keys, handclaps. (6:33)
*11. Sexy, jungle-like polyrhythm bubbling over. (2:39)
