A unique sound world filled with rhythmic changes and playfulness.
This album was produced by the German experimental rock band Can, and features a mix of minimal groove and improvisational development.
The multi-layered rhythms of the percussion and the floating bass are exquisitely intertwined, and the introduction of electronics expands the sound image in a variety of ways. The vocals are abstract, emphasizing the kinetic quality of the sound itself. The song structure boldly incorporates elements of reggae and disco, and it is positioned as a work that symbolizes a period of change for Can. This is a highly polished album where improvisation and construction coexist.
