I also have to throw some kind words on this release.
Here is a review a recently wrote on it...
 
. Polmo Polpo/Cog: split 12" (Audi Sense)
A very cool split ep is the first release on the new 
Audi Sense ep. The Polmo Polpo-side features one 
track of superb deep bc/cr-esque techno and one 
spacey mininal number. The Cog side features three 
experimental tracks that sound like the result of a 
thomas brinkmann, dymano, and Institut Fuer 
Feinmotorik collaboration. Not a whole lot of info
on this one but it's definitely an impressive first
release for Audi Sense. 8/10

there are a lot of poeple who have dismissed this
record as just another uninspiried minimal techno
record but i totally disagree. to my ears richie does
a great job of combining the best elements of
floor-friendly minimal techno and the quirky 
funky elements of the track he reworked for this
release - yello's oh yeah. orange is not like any 
of richie's previous works but it's still very
enjoyable to my ears.
