Honestly, I really don't know what happened here. Considering the fact that I really loved their previous album, Linear Accelerator, in all of it's rough glory, I was surprised to find that this album did absolutely nothing for me, nor did it carry any of the creepy interplay between analog sonics and deep FM tones that were present on Linear Accelerator. Basically, all of the elements on Calabi Yau Space are the same you will find on their previous release, but much weaker. The mood sounds forced and the synthwork sounds far too light, like it's an imitation of it's own self without any active sincerity.

There's no doubt in my mind that Dopplereffekt is an impressive group. But like the mood shift from their first release to their second, I think maybe Gerald Donald (and company) should have taken another stylistic leap for their third, instead of retreading ground that was already done to near perfection.

Another masterpiece by the nebulous Drexciya legacy. Breaking with all conventional musical rules this records continues the journey into unexplored terrain much like other recent material in other disguises (Der Zyklus, Arpanet). IMHO the artist(s) behind it have discovered sound sculpturing with Absynth. That's what makes it organic and machinesque at the same time all while sounding confusing to the uncommitted listener. The fascination and confusion arising with recent discoveries in modern physics is very much audible here. If you don't understand what the track titles mean you probably won't understand the music as well.
