Richie Hawtin reduced his musical approach to basic components, choosing repeating patterns over standard arrangements. The record serves as a demonstration of how a minimal use of audio triggers can carry substantial weight.

Launched during a high point for the Plus 8 label, the album embodies the cold, calculated vibe of the techno scene between Windsor and Detroit. The production is sharp and roomy, documenting an era when club beats began to focus on the nuances of quiet and emptiness.
