It honestly makes me feel great to know that tunes called ‘Cybernetik Memory’ are still being produced. That’s to say nothing of how they actually sound. The mere robotic reference is enough. However, the music is what we’re here to discuss and thankfully, it doesn't disappoint. The five original versions are clean, machine manifestions of electro fluidity which, while being traditionalist, display a range and nuance that showcase the depth of Mr. Jann’s talents. Marco Bernardi’s remix sounds like Thelonius Monk on crack and feels like a deliberate attempt to throw a spanner in the works. Reaching a nadir on ‘Klep Klap’ where it soars on electro thermals, this is serious stuff.
