JAN JELINEK
Kosmischer Pitch
Boomkat Product Review:
Jan Jelinek presents a necessary 20 year edition of his classic, sought-after ode to motorik kosmiche on his own label, newly dressed up with a previously unissued bonus cut from the same era.
First dispensed by Pole’s ~scape label in 2005, ‘Kosmischer Pitch’ marked a subtle detour from the dub, jazz, funk and soul-sampling gems that Jelinek built a resounding reputation on from the late ‘90s under his own name, as Gramm and Farben. He would apply the same rigorous methodology of inch-tight edits arranged into sparkling, grooving lathers playfully adjacent to Wolfgang Voigt’s GAS as much as their longhair forebears from the pastoral-leaning kosmiche wing of the krautrock movement, such as Moebius & Roedelius’ Harmonia/Cluster/Kluster and their ilk, or Can at their most laid-back and stoned.
The album has since understandably become in demand for its soothing nature and effortlessly hypnotic drift, and can be heard as setting the scene for the likes of The Field in its wake, whilst chiming with a movement of post-rock and krautrock mutators such as To Rococo Rot and Kreidler. The horizon gazing structures that would feed into post-rock (and so much more) are best heard in the strolling, almost country-inflected centrepiece ‘Lithiummelodie 1’, and perhaps closest to GAS via beatdown deep house on the opener ‘Universal Band Silhouette’, whilst ‘Planeten In Halbtrauer’ nods to Harmonia via that legendary Neu! B-side, and ‘Western Mimickry’ cocks a subtle German side-eye at the blues, and ultimately leads into the standout 16 minute closer of frayed loops that fade to nowt and save a surprise we won't spoil for the very end.
