Reviewed 2013-04-04
The latest from legendary Berlin producer Ulrich Schnauss, famous for his shoegazey ambient/indietronica. Lots of nostalgia, bleached-out bleary IDM soundscapes, and mellow cruising-altitude head-nodders. For fans of M83, Boards of Canada, Tycho, Vangelis, Moby, and Tim Hecker.

1. Slow-building intro with delicate synth lines and churning percussion
2. Dreamy and minimal with bubbly electronics
*3. Bright and loose with a chipper layered beat and blurred-out vocal samples
*4. Midtempo with cascading tinkly piano and deep synth swells
*5. Choppy resonating synth and a deep rolling beat
*6. Perky and optimistic with energizing keyboard lines and gentle chimes. Like a zen chillout in double-time.
7. Pulsating synth, slowly crescendos with lots of subtle intertwining melodies
8. Deep, weighty and introspective
9. Gentle, slow-morphing, emotional
10. Uptempo Italo disco with a punchy full sound.
