Info
Berlin-based trio Automat has recorded an exceptional new album.
It was recorded with the 1950s analog technology of Candy Bomber Studios in Berlin-Tempelhof.
Almost all the tracks on the album are named after the sonic devices and effects units that were the focus during production: "EMT 140" is a two meter long reverb plate, "H 910" is a harmonizer that defined the sound of David Bowie's "Low". The Automat musician Zeitblom had been searching for this unit for ten years. His perseverance paid off.
The thunderous bass lines, delirious rhythms and hypnotic sounds of "Plusminus" make the notion of categories and genres seem superfluous. Of course, we are not dealing with classic dub reggae here. And the Detroit Techno of musicians such as Terrence Dixon is another story. Yet oscillating between these poles is a music that even draws from jazz and other genres without compromising its autonomy.
