Description

"Jonas Reinhardt's full solo debut for Kranky shows that the San Francisco-based composer -- like many musicians both of his age and, it seems, his label -- have a deep fondness for the steady, rich-sounding music made in the 1970s from musicians such as Klaus Schulze, Manuel Göttsching, and Jean-Michel Jarre, mixing serene electronics with rhythmic experimentation and guitar glaze in a variety of methods. In that regard, this self-titled effort is often a tribute rather than a new way forward, but Reinhardt's work is nonetheless very enjoyable, a way to regather these various strands from any number of limiting genre associations and reuse them in a new fashion. Instead of lengthy pieces, Reinhardt's work here consists of (comparatively) shorter songs, often built around a central motif or series of motifs either repeated or developed."
