Comment: it is the pleasure of mine to loot the catalogue of a French imprint, 17 Sons Records. And those 22 minutes by Roman Panatela are something truly special to be enjoyed for. More profoundly, one can enjoy minimalist rhythms of electronic music as if a train chugging in one rhythm with some barely discernible shades. The more I keep listening to it the more I perceive it to be a contemporary counterpoint or progression of krautrock. Indeed, seminal influences of Kraftwerk, and Neu! come out of it in a refreshing way. This 4-track outing is a good accompanist for one`s drawn-out journey in the car while enjoying monotonous landscapes around and the stripes in the middle of a route going by. It is called motorik. It is a motorik experience by contemporary standards because you are driving with the electric car. Top fare.
