Kubusschnitt - The Singularity. 2001 Europe


OK - back from a business trip in the DC area, and ready to resume normal hobby activities.

For Kubusschnitt's prior album The Cube, my scratch off notes stated: Rock solid sequencer/guitar based EM music. Hodgepodge Euro group. Four members adds a lot of synergy. Both are easily recommended to RMI fans (and others similar). Some great driving the Interstate music.

And I did sell that one, falling in the "too much of the same thing" category. At first I thought that's where The Singularity was going as well, but it began to capture my imagination. An electronic album made up from a quartet is rare enough, and there's plenty of great guitar to offset the sequencers. The group sounds inspired here, and I get the impression this is considered one of their best albums, if not the best. And they have many releases, including recently. I need to put up an Under the Radar page as well.  Released during the heyday of the Berlin School Revival. This album makes the cut and will likely be the sole representation of Kubusschnitt in my physical collection. Interesting for me, that in those same 2005 notes, I called out The Cube as the better album. Tastes evolve...


Ownership: CD: 2001 Neu Harmony. Jewel case with simple booklet.
