Ulrich Schnauss - A Long Way to Fall (2013)

The new album by noted electronic shoegaze musician Ulrich Schnauss finds him at perhaps his most exploratory and experimental stage. The tracks have a clear sense of progression and shimmering quality about them. In contrast to the more ambient focused "Goodbye," the new album leans towards techno and much more danceable. I still prefer his old style, but this is quite enjoyable as well. This is another very solid release from one of electronica's most talented musicians.
