The most important interface in the virtual cosmos of the new EP are the two new tracks “Silence” and “Borderline”, both impressively proving how deep the unequal duo dug into their floating Electro worlds and how much they actually learned from each other. Results of this are two both gripping and artful examples of nocturnal electronic music, breaking up the cold sequences in “Silence” with warm, tantalizing synthesizer drops while “Borderline” with its Swedish (!) lyrics is driven through the depths of human emotion by a dark and hypnotizing beat next to Plastique's bitter, yet passionate vocals. The mixing of human conflicts with the robot’s yearning for exactly these is raised to a new level, putting away with the RÖYKSOPP, COVENANT or KIRLIAN CAMERA comparisons once and for all and displaying a characteristic trademark sound instantly recognizable.
Besides these two groundbreaking deepening of the relationship between man and machine, six remixes wait for the Robot disciples, among which the WELLE: ERDBALL interpretation of the debut hit “Another Love” and Fredrik Wiberg’s unbelievably bluesy singer/songwriter version of “Borderline” clearly stand out.
