Still kick myself i got to support these guys one time.. I've yet to give the album a listen tho, maybe ill buy it payday, from the clips ive heard its not got any beats which is cool but the thing i remember most about their set was the kicks and snares being so deep and sharp they cut through your soul

Anthony Rother did it better in 2000, it's cold but the dynamics and sound aesthetics are miles ahead of what Gerald keeps making with his Tritons. Calabi Yau Space was his best in this style, don't know why he kept remaking it over and over with inferior attempts over 10 years.

 

It's true regarding Donald stuck in this style but Rother did nothing better, Rother was always super direct and by the numbers, not cold - there's not a single one interesting or unexpected decision in his stuff. It probably has more appeal to some electro purists, but i doubt even that.

I haven't kept up with Rother's output but his early 2000's you had the "Computer World" style electro, the cold mechanical electro, experimental, really great stuff. My favorite is probably this one https://www.discogs.com/Anthony-Rother-Art-Is-A-Technology/master/22005 have listened to it for years and never got tired. Even Gerald Donald Computer World style electro is a bit grating to hear now because it's so played out so I can fault him for trying a different approach in the mid 00's. Some artists just need managers, he even struggles with the live shows because people don't like the stuff he plays.

Speaking of - wouldn't mind at all if there's a 20th anniversary reissue of Sex with the Machines in the pipeline for release later this year. Could really use another, more pristine copy of this one.

a lot of stuff he's made for the past 10 years or so is kinda really boring and uninspiring but a few tunes are very nice imo, these for example:

i wish he made more stuff in the vein of quantum transposition or black replica.

at that Arpanet gig recently, his last piece was pretty fresh & a fully different style. Hope a new Arpa release is coming!

The Cherenkov Radiation EP was great too, he also played as Arpanet at La Geoge in 2006 that was amazing some tracks were never released.
