Rafael Espinosa returns with his 5th album in 10 years – a kind of anniversary so to speak. “DataTransmission” is packed to the brim with 17 tracks and nearly 80 minutes of sound intending to abductyou into a retro-futuristic fiction. Ideas of an imagined futuristic industrial music crop up in your mind, of huge transatlantic copper wires, of old-fashioned fiercely humming microwaves, men in protective gear with Geiger counters, a world in sync with progress.As opposed to previous albums, on the new opus Geistform mostly refrains from using upfront rhythms, but instead creates an electrifying steady flow of sound. From the opener “M-Metric” with its low key beat patterns to the stipulating conclusion “Direction” this album works as an entrancing whole, sucking you into its world of minimal beat patterns and acutely buzzing analogue noise.Miraculously you find yourself nodding your head more and more steadily as it goes – “Data Transmission” is a classic piece of Geistform, working in a tradition of the likes of Kraftwerk, fellow countrymen Esplendor Geométrico, label mates Orphx, Pan Sonic and in certain moments the minimalism of Raster-Noton as influence but of course without sounding like any of them.Geistform have created an album out of time, not linked to a specific genre or era, totally devoted to itsintention of data transmission - which is in essence communication. It will remain an eternal enigma howmusic that’s so abstract and contained on the surface can generate such a groove and stir the emotions of so many!Released late October, 2012 on Hands.Track Listing:01 M-metric02 Planck Limit03 Los Alamos04 Resonant Mass05 Volt Fields06 Alba07 Telefax08 Vacio09 Information10 Antiharmonics11 Funcion de Onda12 Hades13 Fermions14 Radio Engineers15 Schroedinger’s Cat16 Atlas17 Direction
