This is an impressive release. The original of ‘Zusammenkunft’ is a pacey bit of electro with bittersweet, gothic overtones. The type that Siouxsie and the Banshees would have made had they adopted Adidas as their couturier of choice. Legowelt takes a more rigid, banging route which, with the always welcome addition of a vocoder somewhere in the mix feels like an Esher painting set to music. The Maelstrom mix adds yet another dimension. That of a loping stomp that draws on concave effects and an imaginative use of space to drive it. ‘Aus Der Ferne’ is perhaps the most interesting track here and tonally has some similarities to ‘ Zusammenkunft’, but is very much its own boss and feels like a night drive into oblivion. The remix toughens it up and moulds it into an electro monster very much in the Anthony Rother vein. All in all, a lovely piece of work.
