See Me Not

2010 sophomore album from German trio Saroos. On the Odd Nosdam-produced See Me Not, members Florian Zimmer (Iso68, Jersey), Christoph Brandner (Lali Puna, Console) and Max Punktezahl (The Notwist, Contriva) achieve a rare synchronicity that lends their poly-genre instrumental compositions an uncanny air, like something beamed in from a different dimension. Equal parts Krautrock, musique concrete, post-rock and No Wave, the album is both timeless and rooted in history, noisy and bound to a groove, completely foreign and, yet, surprisingly familiar.
