Berliner techno-minimalist guru Peter Grummich's new album Switch Off The
Soap Opera. After almost twenty years of DJing, Grummich looks a lot like
someone who is concealing a shoddy rave monster that crept into him the
past decade or so. He likes to wade barefoot in the bass since his is
cushioned quite well and is nice on your skin, three or four layers as it
is. Grummich trips rather seldom, instead he varies in dance-like tiptoe
steps, steady-paced. If he loses his tact the robots are likely to be
blamed, showing us that he doesn't lack humor as minimal musicians often
like to make us believe. He could have succeeded as a carnie hypnotist
with those eyes of his; instead he gazes deeply into the soul of his
tracks until they are graced with the hypnotic spark that emanates from
his ear. This happens when the layers find their synapse equilibrium in
loops, which shouldn't be all too innocent for the brain when those big
waves are set in motion. The setting is a bit stuffy since there are a lot
of danceable sounds putting the room under pressure, but hey, at least
it's never cold. Airing out only occurs when the party is had, which
surely comes from a true minimal jump-off of this sort.
