I like club sounds and therefore have no problems with the album. All tracks are managed and listen to for exactly that as which it was announced: Minimal Techno Club. It's been known for years that Mr. Gore likes to hear such Clubsounds and hangs himself also in this direction. Not later than the compiled by Gore DJ sets before the concerts there were some warning be. And whoever has now, despite all the signs in the name of Vince Clarke and Martin Gore expect an album in the style of Speak & Spell, although it was announced as minimal techno album, seems to have generally not heard the bang and should be easy to finger hold still and look for DM-cover bands. Btw. usually are those who complain here that the album is bad, the same, the whining, UDN that DM is no longer sound like 20 years ago, the new albums with any stupid recessions down vote. Just ignore these people.
The fact that the album sound-wise a bit "old-fashioned" sounds, may well be that having been analog devices fleet of two Pruduziert with "stale" and just not as 15 years of computer child with her MacBook. And who says that one erwaret latest after 4 Track nothing more, perhaps would be better zuede belongs. Then he would indeed be the highlights Track 6 and 10 encountered. Where Track 10 with his dreamy, simple melody slightly less Club Lastig quite as filler or b-side DM could appear. :-)
All right, can regularly stoking what the two happy.
