Leftfield & Chill Reviews by Found Sounds
(5 out of 5 stars)
The season of booties, re-edits and retreads continues with this little gem doting a tribute to the four most charismatic men in the history of electronic music. If you’re familiar with the track already (‘Vom Himmel Hoch’) and have a tendency to balk at any attempt on originals then don’t be shy. Merely reduced from 17 to seven minutes, it’s as faithful as Old Shep himself, with all the gnarled, freaked and subverted ingredients of the original included. Pre clean synth era, this is filthier than Alf Ramsey’s Porn Dungeon,and therefore demands your attention now. A seminal unearthing.

Cheeky one-sided 12 inch re-edit of Kraftwerks ‘Vom Himmel Hoch’, a track from the time before they were robots and still jammed with the magnificent Neu! Imagine the alien tripods from HG Wells’ ‘War of the worlds’, striding towards you with monstrous bass synths strapped to their shells; then picture them doing a funky little victory dance over the burning remains of your parish church. Cool as fuck.
