The first Musik For Autobahns was a delight: softly-softly ambient and subtle cuts from the likes of Move D, Suzanne Kraft, Roman Fl?gel and plenty more besides. Even amongst Rush Hour's bounty that year, it stood proudly out. A ripple of excitement went through BR HQ upon finding out Gerd Janson was lining up a second, with no shortage of marquee signings all coming correct with their A game.
A number of heads come together to translate these thoughts into sound - from Fort Romeau's Drive-esque "Seleno" joyride through to the propulsive "Melancholy" of Disco Nihilist. Perhaps none elicit as many feels as the enveloping opener from Leon Vynehall though. "Midnight On Rainbow Road" mimics the sense of accelerating down Bundesautobahn 5 at daybreak as much as it does a Mario Kart Special Cup last race. Either way, it's truly mesmeric stuff.
"Midnight on Rainbow Road" got our Debut nod for three main reasons: firstly, it kicked off last year's sublime set from Mr. Janson (so, about time); second, it's a welcome return for Leon Vynehall after a richly deserved breakout year; third, dude's got previous with N64 titling. And that's something we can all get behind.
Musik For Autobahns 2 is out in September.
