Dopplereffekt - Tetrahymena EP

Rate this topic


Recommended Posts

"Formed in the mid-1990s, Dopplereffekt make the most cold, clinical electro on the planet, and although the project ran alongside Gerald’s more well-known group Drexciya until 2002 when James Stinson, the other member of Drexciya died of a heart condition, musically it owes more to Kraftwerk than Donald and Stinson’s hometown of Detroit. Dopplereffekt rarely play live or give interviews, though there have been exceptions: they headlined London’s XOYO in Summer 2011, and were featured on the cover of The Wire in 2009."

 

"In a forthcoming feature with promoters and record label Leisure System, they reveal to FACT that they’ll be releasing a new Dopplereffekt EP, the project’s first release since 2007′s Calabi Yau Space."

Really excited when I read the title but a bit disappointed that it's only an EP. I really hope it isn't as amazingly short (and musically speaking very average) as the last Der Zyklus "ep", that was just unacceptable.

More of the same, sadly. Yeah, it sure has some trademark epicness, but fuck, he did it in unpredictable ways in the middle of 00s, already being 'mature', 'established' and all.

The same signature sounds, but I'm still not getting tired of it. Good to see the first track is being released and all polished. This was an earlier version:

The problem is with the production, it's so dry that the minimal approach doesn't sound very interesting plus the same patches all the time. He used to make such great pads and basslines.

It's that clinical German aesthetic he has been slowly driving towards and perfecting over many years.

Fucking perfect if you ask me. Carries forward the paranoid scientist mythos they've perfected well. Not sure how many people are aware but there's new 2LP collabo with Stingray as well.
