Farben: Textstar Label: Klang Elektronik,

Experimental/ambient/minimal techno without much soul. Not that it needs
soul, per se, but I found the tracks to be somewhat uninteresting... I kept
wishing for more of a challenge with the samples & melodies. I would try:
5,7,9.

1. loops of pings, clicks, simple tones, over a minimal beat
2. mellow downtempo experimental - lots of static-y clicks, simple
string/horn loops
3. simple swirling synth tones, static-y effects, stripped beats
4. a house-y rhythm with some chill synths & tweaky pops, funky & robotic
5. swirly synth tones, simplistic melodies, w/ a female vocal sample
6. slow broken beats, crackles & various hi-pitched tones
7. swirly effects & a neat analog bass loop that's kind of funky
8. sparse & chill-out - with simple tones & clicks & beats
9. warbly space-y synths, with the usual static-y effects
