LITHOPS - QUERIES (CD)


"Immediately the first track, "Kahn", carefully opens the door to an album that surprises with subtly bouncing electronica. On Queries you'll find intuitive rhythms with immediate kick, as well as narrative comical bleeps and clonks. This comes as quite a surprise, considering the predecessor Scrypt manages almost entirely without beats. Apart from Werner's predilection for contrasting directions, there is a simple explanation for this seeming contrast -- Queries collects unpublished material created between 1995 and 1999, as well as three rare vinyl releases from that era, and is therefore, strictly speaking, not really a subsequent release, but more an enlightening review of a time during which individual sounds established themselves as significant elements in compositions, even though they were rooted neither in pop nor in more serious music."
