Funkstörung - Funkentstört

This record really is outstandingly good. I'm a bit confused about something though. The side B label indicates it runs at 45 rpm, but I think it's on there by mistake. At 45 rpm it just sounds too 'rushed'. At 33 rpm however, the tracks are wonderfull. Especially 'Funkstille', one of the prettiest pieces of music I have. If you're into mid-90's Autechre, get this one too! A great record to start your Funkstörung collection with.

I have to agree this is amongst their best. The second track "storsender" is absolutely beautiful, very desolate sounding, crackly. The way everything drops out and then the bassline fades in and the beats come back in always makes me smile. Very nice.

Funkstörung may have got big influences from the IDM-gods Autechre but it is not fair to accuse them to copy their idols. This release is a future classic, "Funkstille" is an ingenious work of 2 talented musicians who understood this kind of music.
