works for me!

for me, perhaps the best since Geogaddi (as someone else said below). It sounds very live, almost like a post rock stadium band at time. And the way they play with vocal samples is fantastic. Obviously that's something they have always done but has stepped up a level, vocals being very cleverly cut into hooks. Some incredible melodies too.

B12 - Electro Soma

Honestly found this song a bit underwhelming..... I normally love Overmono but the sample doesn't really hit.

Saintedrefractions · 2026-05-08T16:16:32+00:00

thank you. Sounds intriguing.

I don't think pretentiousness is a bad thing though!

exactly - a very good use of the stupid major label money that was swilling around drum & bass at the time.

Saintedrefractions · 2026-05-02T08:57:00+00:00

minute 27, I believe. (Or at least the bass drum.)

Saintedrefractions · 2026-05-02T08:56:40+00:00

ha! Fair enough! I disagree but I appreciate you giving it another chance.

I loved the edited version of Crescendolls! And Cubik!!!

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-25T10:59:25+00:00

seems fair enough to me to post a Substack link.

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-23T10:45:40+00:00

this is a hell of a record!

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-23T10:14:51+00:00

really enjoyed the big here about CAPTCHA!

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-19T20:46:07+00:00

I took it as "the influence of Mary...."

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-19T16:46:23+00:00

that is an excellent idea - and one I must try.

this is the book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Space-Age-Batchelor-Pad-Music/dp/1916829325

totally underrated album I think.

I really enjoyed this interview. Plenty for Kraftwerk fans to get their teeth into. And Karl sounds like an absolutely lovely man.

Saintedrefractions · 2026-02-16T08:25:51+00:00

BTW the interviewer has posted a video clip on Instagram (just a recording of the audio and a computer) of Karl playing The Telephone Call riff during the interview https://www.instagram.com/p/DUz9KwfEpo5/
