I own these three, some tracks are really good, some are weaker. These are
definitily worth checking out. You might interpret what you hear to be
Skam-like, to be Bochum Welt-like (eniac). I'd always be careful with that
kind of comparisons.

Amp Tek is a good example. There is a real beautiful track on there (B2:
Arear 51...nice melodies and cool light breaks), but the track B1 is just
horrible as fas as I'm concerned, a noisy stomper.
