Electronic / Ambient Techno
♥♥♥ The Box / ♥♥ Adnan's / ♥ Dwr Budr
Forget everything you've heard about electronic, this in not for dance, leap or shake your body compulsively, this is only to take place and thinking. An introspective walk into a parallel world. "In Sides" takes Kraftwerk standards and leads it to the next level in the genre. "The Box" is impossible to describe with words, best synthesizers piece ever made.
