Ouch. That cover.

She reminds me of Peaking Lights. Not bad.

Wonderful release, Great -New Age- artwork. Minerva is Awesome. Smart and sexy.

lol cover looks like it's straight outta the 90s or worse

Some people do not have the distance and sense of humor. This cover is a funny pastiche, playing in the New Age.

This cover is horrible and I haven't even read how many comments have said that yet

Not bad coverartwork ,the cocnept is in the rebirth an feel of the 90ies, not horrible just nostalgic and feelingfull

not lucky, i don't have the english sense of humor.
for me, it's verey horrible

I need this! Her 12 inch for 100% Silk is without a doubt one of the best records I own. So glad this woman exists to make this type of music

Art is demanding. Art requires intelligence. "Horrible" is not an argument, it is ignorance. She is excellent and it is most important.

Is this LP house music?

Great music, if you like reverb like me.

grt! would fit in a David Lynch movie.

Cover is awful, I insist, with humor or without it.

The album is wonderful. Loved at first listen from spotify. A great work of blurry synth-pop or whatever it is.

I'm having a really hard time getting past the really, severely awful cover. The music is all right, but as for the artwork, 'not not fun' is not the same thing as 'fun.' Who cares about irony; the cover is truly ugly.

If I could ever fall in love with a concept this is it. (yes, that covers the album art as well)

the cover isn't awful, it just looks like some 3-d graphics rendered on a computer from 1990. back then this art would have been considered futuristic and realistic. only 20 years ago...

I disagree fully. Even 20 years ago this kind of artwork was shit. People were still figuring out what computers could do with "art," in the same way that back in the 1980s people were still figuring out what to do with synthesizers in music. Most of it was horrible, and it all sounds and looks outdated, and very little of it is redeemable in any sort of way.

synthesizer music was well matured by the early 70's my friend. in the 80's things became digitized, which represents a major change in the use of synthesizers. but to say that people didn't know how to use them....

well how can you even make a synthesizer if noone knew how to use it? this is like a car that somehow could be built and yet noone knew how to drive it.

Well then, I guess here we will have to respectfully agree to disagree, because we've ventured into whatever we mean by "matured," and "peak." I for one am not nostalgic for the early proto-house sounds of the early 1980s. I wouldn't call naivete "charming." And while I realize the value of Kraftwerk and Giorgio Moroder et al, I don't really listen to them for enjoyment. And here, while you can throw your "how could you"s at me, you'll have to realize that all of this in the end is subjective.

I should have been more specific in my comment earlier: about the artwork being called "realistic" and "futuristic" twenty years ago. Maybe "futuristic," but definitely not realistic. Surrealistic? De Chirico? Magritte and Dali on a bad day? Purism/Ozenfant? I don't care. It still reminds me of things Moonshine Music was doing in the early to mid-90s.

"well how can you even make a synthesizer if noone knew how to use it? this is like a car that somehow could be built and yet noone knew how to drive it."

Okay, really-just because you invent something doesn't mean that you have an application for it, or that people automatically know how to use it. The car was already built with a purpose in mind. Sound synthesis maybe had a similar goal initially, but the parameters for sound are infinite when compared to cars.

But let's set that car example aside for the moment, because it's just way too simplistic compared to audio synthesis. I'd argue that people are *still* figuring out new things with sound, even if it's digital or analog, and I'd even dare to say that the things we are doing with sound are still maturing. Do we know what we are doing with synthesis? On a general level, yes. But not everything.

Lastly: this music is not punk, nor does it carry a "punk aesthetic." There is nothing anti-establishment or subversive about this, not in today's musical climate.

27 comments and 20 are about the cover. how pathetic this is. get a sense of life.

at least no one's buying or listening to this because of the cliché pretty artist photo and stylized textured background with nice typography ra-style.
