"flex", the second komet cd follows seamless it�s first release on rastermusic.Alltogether the tracks are more straight, less whirr spacy than on the predecessor ( exception: the poly rhythmic vibrating title track), the sounds are more sophisticated, the anyhow hardly as melodies described two-notes-fragments more reduced, without making the music more inaccessible. Even if the tracks begin so strange tricky like for instance "stop" or "pol" a familiar groove turns up soon. In spite of clearness Komet always guatantees a pleasant, relaxed flow between trip and electro - abstract hypnotic pop. And "trakt" remembers somehow of Popcorn.

... this album however has more balls then usual laid-back no dance techno has. ...Komet, stays more monochromic, exploring one idea and leaves it there ...

VITAL WEEKLY 108

...this latest release from one of the more interesting Electronica labels around is delicately detailed, abstract analogue pointillism that is neither obvious nor recondite ...
