"Kintopp, the acclaimed Cologne musician's third album, is his best and most complete to date. Reuber draws from many years of experience in the field of psychedelic electronic music, both solo and as one half of the duo Klangwart (with Markus Detmer) with whom he recorded two full-length albums ('Köln-Olpe', 'Zwei'). Kintopp (a colloquial German expression for 'cinema') narrates a movie; instead of words, it creates images in the mind of the listener. In the style of a collage, associative sounds and sequences from various different musical contexts were reassembled and interwoven with each other. The new musical pieces thus composed offer plateaus rich in imagery and emotion -- a point of departure for the audience's imagination, travelling alongside the story or beyond it. About Reuber's first album Anna (staubgold 8) Vital Weekly wrote: 'The result is a cosmic trip with sounds moving everywhere, very vivid. With some of the overtones I was reminded of Steve Reich on acid with electricity up his you know what. It's very pleasant music to sit through, read the newspaper and enjoy life'."
