Spat Europa

Asmus Tietchens' second album on Sky Records not only continued in the style of its predecessor 'Biotop', it managed to refine it a little more precisely. 'Spat-Europa' also conveys a banefully distorted pseudo pop soundscape of disjointed rhythms and oblique melodies, defined by nervous pulses, cool alacrity and croaking toots; tongue in cheek it most certainly is, but the musical arrangement again affirms its own identity. Here, shadowy, rumbling industrial elements cut into the neon coloured pieces indicative of the artist's parallel lines of development.180 gram vinyl.
