The second POLE album and the second in his classic trilogy. Stefan Betke's variations on damaged dub minimalism recall the best of Basic Channel techno while steering well clear of the monotony factor. These tracks materialise out of a haze of stuttering fuzz, bouncing thin shimmers of echoing synth off of ambiguous rhythms and taught, bulging bass. An excellent debut. POLE ventures boldly into minimal glitch, dubstep and even dubtronica. One for the heads.
