If you don't have access to this cd and still want to know what this sounds like check out the last release on Kompakt: Schaben & Voss, one side is that distorted Freiland bass, straight crisp high hats & the words to Stevie Wonders " I just called to say I love you" spoken over top of it all. Then prepare yourself for a little folk guitar meandering and on the flip, more crazy distorted bass and synth with some very 80's esque Underworld type vocals. Truly strange techno. todd [EMAIL PROTECTED]
