As usual with DJ Koze, it's hits and misses. Marilyn Whirlwind is great, the collabs are often interesting and there are some enjoyable tracks. But most of it still feels half-baked. Sometimes it sounds like (bad) folktronica, sometimes like B-sides deep house tracks and sometimes like a weird attempt at UK garage vibes.

A nice album to listen. That's it.

This album has its moments, and I have a feeling that this might be an album that requires a lot of listens to really get, but overall, the album was fairly boring. I mean, some of the songs were just straight up uninteresting entirely. Long, drawn-out electronic pieces that just stagnated and went nowhere. There were a few of those. But then there were a few pretty cool songs on it too. You’ve got the first song that features electronic musician Caribou, there’s the remixed “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough" featured in “Ich Schreib’ Der Ein Buch 2013" and the really cool effects featured throughout “Marilyn Whirlwind" (perhaps the best song on the album). Generally speaking though, the album is mostly a miss for me, outside of a few pretty good songs.
