Robby der Roboter graces the cover of this debut by German reedman Klein’s Tubes and Wires; such retro-futurism suits the quartet’s jazzrocktronica — bits and bytes of synthy music (“Track,” “Skip”) for flying saucer tape decks. But listeners with a creative jazz bent should strap in for the longer rides. “Snow” is an evocative, multifaceted gem, and the solemn “End” even features acoustic guitar. You might enjoy that down-to-earth touch. After all, you are not a robot. Dave Lynch
My god, what an absolutely incredible Suite. I'll admit, I've struggled to get into Pharoah Sanders due to diving headfirst into some of his most challenging catalogue and that never worked. This is the perfect place to restart. Floating Points is new for me and I can honestly say I've never heard synthesizer music this lush and organic before. the LSO is just perfect. This is one of those albums that any serious music fan needs in their life. The perfect swan song for the great Pharaoh! 5/5 ClassyMusicSnob
