This is
Dopplereffekt
's first release on Rephlex. Dopplereffekt are one of the more mysterious units of the contemporary electronic music scene: there are no interviews and hardly any live appearances. The composers hide behind strange German pseudonyms and the song titles and lyrics are in English and make up a strange mixture of scientific, sexually explicit and political allusions. Dopplereffekt's music is also highly eclectic and unusual. Forefathers
Kraftwerk
seem to be more than present in the music, but Dopplereffekt have developed their very own and highly influential sound aesthetic. Dopplereffekt are originally from Detroit, though some believe them to be now based in Europe. Critics claim their electro-style resembles that of
Drexciya
, and that they were indeed early members of that now-legendary outfit. This album is a perfect sequel to
Linear Accelerator
, their album release on International Deejay Gigolo in 2003, and accompanies this year's classic retrospective
Gesamtkunstwerk
on Clone. Musically, it follows a more ambient/soundscape/experimental/electronic course akin to
Der Zyklus
'
Biometry
project or even
Arpanet
's
Quantum Transposition
and
Inertial Frame
releases. Though some find
Calabi-Yau Space
more concept-driven, it is just as engaging and combines the science of sound with other fields of physics. After a few listens, you'll notice some similar themes running thru various tracks: the musical expression of physics and sonic equations the likes of which will scramble your brain.
