The two longest tracks �shift� (13:15) and �wellen� (14:49) hilight the main points of the new Produkt-CD �stretch�simultaneously. While �shift� picks up the thread of the slow-mo technotracks of the previous CD �float�, the peaceful, almost melodic �wellen� and �stretch�, the electric and totally hypnotic titeltrack, enter a new musical direction for Produkt. Produkt has always stood for hypnosis, but this time everything is much more composed and concentrated than its predecessor. This impression will be intensified through the short soundstructures which connect the tracks and remind us that rastermusic consists of two labels. The second label is noton, which is famous for totally unorthodox, avantgarde sound creations. The label is named after the founder noto, who is causing a sensation in international avant-sound-circles and in �shift� he also complets the members of Produkt.

...just a great slow going techno piece. Minimal changes, but with a bass line that sticks into your mind. It‘s a great CD! ...
