coming across an ep this distinctive is truly refreshing, when so much digital dub sounds interchangeable. the sounds used here are an inviting mix of sampled piano, bright synths and dusty noise, assembled into slowly shifting patterns. the rich quality of the textures and slightly off-kilter rhythms reminded me a little of the fantastic kompakt producer dettinger, but this music is truly lufth′s own. while he also has many releases on thinner as digitalverein i must confess that these tracks, where he ditches the doof doof of minimal techno, are far and away my favourites. if you like this ep a good follow-up is the silent season dub album, which collects down tempo tracks by most of the main thinner contributors.
