Ah, good old Krautrock :-) I'm pretty much in agreement with the rest of the world that "Rien" was mostly saved by the Jim O' Rourke production (plus the bonus presence of Christoph Heemann- anybody who can trace his exact contributions gets a four gun salute in a limited edition of 12). On the other hand, if you failed _Tapes_ at 30%, I'm not sure exactly what I can do for you. cheers, -rob
