len faki: basement trax vol 02

While the first part of Len Faki's Basement Trax series  was characterized by vocals, spheric sounds, and melodies, the Berghain resident almost completely passes on these elements with Vol. 02. With "B-PAX" and "For Real," he sets the tone before adding melodic elements, bleeps, and hints of ambient sounds. Faki connects "Hainish Cycle" to "those moments of trance, of zero gravity without a sense of time at Berghain. Which is why the rhythmic hi-hat kicks in only more than halfway through. Everything's in flux and harmony already, you almost don't need it."
