"With their fourth album, Music Is A Hungry Ghost, the well known Berlin/Duesseldorf electronics collective -- this time around strengthened by New York DJ I-Sound -- have succeeded in expanding their musical universe and enriching it around yet another new variation. To Rococo Rot are ceaseless in their quest to perfect their vision of timeless music. Playful electronic sound paintings, which are at times disturbing and untamed but equally set up a cozy, homey groove that always manages to touch the listener in a special place. They create other yet nevertheless familiar worlds which envelope you and make it very difficult to leave. Internationally, To Rococo Rot are heralded and respected above and beyond their German peers, having won the hearts of Björk, Radiohead, and Leftfield (just to name a few). The new EP, 'Pantone', is not a single in the traditional sense, but a result of their touring together with I-Sound. The title-track, 'Pantone(red)', has been drastically re-worked after the aforementioned tour experience as has 'Trance of Travel (gets)', which has to this point been unavailable on vinyl, although, like, 'Pantone', can be found on the Music Is The Hungry Ghost CD. 'Brett 2 (plus)' is a different version than of that on the 'Kölner Brett' (Staubgold) compilation and 'I Wanted To Meet Him' and 'Fisherman Dresses Like Joseph Beuys' are two wonderful tracks that, for some inexplicable reason, never made it on the record."
