Dopplereffekt - Linear accelerator

Recommended Posts

WeMe Records have secured the rights to reissue Dopplereffekt’s epic Linear Accelerator album from 2003. Previously only available on CD on International DeeJay Gigolos, now for the first time you can fully luxuriate with it on double vinyl. This was an unexpected and much more experimental change in direction for them at the time and came after a six year gap of new material. It begins with the slowly unfolding 21 minute ‘Photo Injector’ and over its six tracks takes us on a long and very strange trip. Inspired by the high energy particle psychics being explored at DESY, Dopplereffekt appear to be similarly pulling the very fabric of their sounds apart and thinking on a subatomic level. Even after 17 years, it sounds utterly unlike anyone else. Timeless, astounding and alien.

Great news indeed.

 

I love this album. Cause of the compilation, I often forget it's their first, and a bit of an outlier.  Its easily split into halves; the first being bafflingly experimental, and the second is austere beatless electro. Their later stuff would merge the two approaches a little more organically. I doubt they will ever release another 15 min modular wankbeast like Niobium Resonators.

I sometimes find the 1st half little much when I'm not in the mood but the 2nd half are some of my alltime favourite tracks by GD. Extremely simple, but very evocative.
