Phillip Sollmann's debut sits in that specific Berlin minimal space but doesn't feel cold — there's a tactile quality to the drum programming that gives tracks like 'Lied' a warmth that most records from that scene couldn't manage. The album has a self-contained logic, each track feeling purposeful rather than interchangeable. It arrived during the peak years of Kompakt and Perlon adjacency and got filed under the wrong kind of minimal as a result.
