Information

 

Amazing new album of krautrock-inspired beauty!

 

 

 

Subway II, the debut album by Subway on Soul Jazz Records, is a startling cosmic marriage of influences – German electronic rock music from the 1970s (Cluster, Kraftwerk, Neu, Harmonia, Ash Ra Tempel), 80s Detroit science fiction techno (Carl Craig, Juan Atkins, Jeff Mills) and a hint of Italian and European disco (Danielle Baldelli meets Cerrone, Space, Moroder and Jean Michel Jarre).

 

Subway are Michael Kirkman and Alan James and have been releasing music since 2000. Subway II was recorded at home in East London using a plethora of analog equipment and techniques that enabled them to create sound reflecting cityscapes such as Berlin, Dussseldorf, Detroit and Paris whilst at the same time creating a contemporary musical commentary of London in 2009.

 

This album is a cosmic progression of post-dance music, focused more on meditative thought and space than one made for the dancefloor, yet still encompassing the rhythm and constant beat at the heart.

 

 

I cant stop listening to it ...

Just noticed that the order of the tracks on discogs is slightly different than what you have it tagged as.

hmm maybe discogs has it wrong because Soul jazz records has a different listing.

you shouldn't rely on Discogs THAT much, because it can pretty iffy at times in my experiences. Especially with recent things.
