Various – 2020

Man that Bim Bim track is a slog to get through... Kind of peaks with Side A to be honest

I like it all, a really fantastic Various release, but that D1 Transformers track really surprised me. What an insane ride it is. Do we know for sure who C.I.A is? If i was a betting man I would say Edward is involved in this madness

to this day i don't see enough praise for the C.I.A track. what an insane track. it sounds like the transformers having an orgy. this is a good thing

"I Need You" vocal is sampled from the Miracles - "The Tracks of my Tears"

Outstanding contribution from Rhadoo which I'm happy to see joining the Giegling family. Ceve is a masterpiece in texture choice, arrangement and tension distribution, throughout an impressive 18 minutes as well. A great summary of what the whole dark-ish minimal vibe inspired by Ricardo and the likes set out to highlight. Do not miss.

This record is worth the price for Mountain People „La colline“ alone.

loses steam a bit in the middle, the bim bim track is a miss, but on the whole is quite nice + a nice spin! glad it finally arrived!

most overrated Album in a while same as Mind over Matter. I really love Giegling but 50% of the release are just utter phony crap. Yes, Disc 1 with Molly, LL, Map, and the great Ghostbusters song but Disc 2 is such a gargantuan disappointment.

Really wonderful stuff, A-side is the strongest with both Map.Ache and Leafar Legov putting in great tracks. Can't wait to head the 2021 v/a release in... 2023?

I was initially unconvinced, but after repeated listening this has burrowed its way into my brain. Maybe it's the 8 month wait that initially caused a sour taste, but that has certainly passed already.

D3 is my pick, but dreamy Shaka Khan on B1 and Julie McKnight on A1 hits too. Everything else feels too deep to really bond closely with, but definitely still connects.
