‘Klangbuilder’ has menace doesn’t it? The word is loaded and to call each track on a particular release the same thing, and award a number for differentiation adds to the tension. The first two tracks are funk fuelled frolic fiends, the first distinguished by what sounds like a string section, the second a stark bleepy number with a flat, bleak underlay. Albert could have left it at that, but then he goes all ambient on us, and tracks 3 and 4 are an exercise in patience that I could have done without. They’re ok, with the beat less 4 being more memorable. I was in the mood for dancing though.
