Now here's an artist whose obviously more than happy to cover most of the old skool cliches in just the title (I'm assuming you know some basic German here!) &, sadly, the 12 tracks follow suit by being totally predictable, safe & samey to the extent that listening to it all the way through is something of a chore. It's a shame, really, as, after the obligatory 'Intro' the album gets off to a promising start with 'Warum' with its mix of solid rhythms & bass sequencing but it quickly becomes obvious that the album has little to offer beyond this & so it just rumbles on & on, the monotonous flavour of every track meaning that the lure of the skip button quickly becomes irresistible. Some might feel it unfair to level such accusations at one particular artist when many of his label mates are doing nothing outwardly different but this album just seems that much more monotonous than any of the others to the extent that even the most ardent old skool lovers might do well to approach this one with caution.
