I normally never bother to write reviews, but I felt the other review does not adequately represent this release. I guess it comes down to taste here, I mean it's sort of silly for someone who loves repetitive percussion, rhythms, and etc. to have a problem with repetitive vocals. Its all about when and how you use any of these tracks, I personally love the repetitive vocals in this release and the productions are absolutely unique and stand out amongst the cliche tracks that have been classified under the genre of minimal. But genres are boring, who cares, despite what this release might be claimed to be, it is has a classic feel to it and as far as I'm concerned this release captures that wonky hip feel of "bourgeoisie" techno. (I say this because I feel the minimal genre as of late totally reminds me of that absurdist style of affluent art, where they think they are so cool because they are so silly and rich). Maybe some of that makes sense.

This would have been a fantastic release had it not been for the severely overused vocal elements. I Try has 4 minutes of the sample "I try to find" till it finally warbles out only to be reintroduced near the end -- mind numbing. Monday makes less use of its vocals, but I find the inflections highly annoying. (reminds me of a drop pitched scatman. Fuck!) Still though the track is brilliant musically and I'll have to play it at some point. I'll probably hate myself later. Freunde 25 isn't as pumping as the other two. There's a "flying buzz-bee synth" that sounds like talking but no vocal (it should have been the other way around.) Overall, the production is great and I can only hope this EP is re-released in dub only form. In the meantime I'll have to fiddle with the eqs and play sparingly.
