mike dehnert: how close to be

Pampa welcomes Berlin's Mike Denhert for his label debut. Mike provides two original tracks that are as distinct as they are relentless, possessed of a cerebral quality that belies their tough and stripped back aesthetic. "How Close To Be" is a stuttering march of half-heard and half-imagined discourse. It's both surprising and linear. "Me Too" is also a creature of opposing ideologies. Warped moving jazz plays with static motorik patterns, automation curls around repetition, and textures change position throughout.
