The title of this album translates as plastic, which is odd given that Move D's mellow
techno grooves are far from synthetic - synthesised yes, but never synthetic. The 12
deep and beautifully crafted instrumentals are organic creations full of life and emotion,
largely as a result of their jazzy overtones and subtle hints of funk. One of the tracks
is called "Tribute to Mr Fingers", which gives some indication of where Move D is coming
from. But while paying respect to Larry Heard along with Detroit's class of 87, Kunststoff
still moves things forward significantly. There is little point picking out highlights, just
lay back and absorb every gorgeous moment.
