Can music be classic and contemporary at the same time? Can it contain a secret genetic code in which the summary of the past, the present pulse, and the future view are hidden? Be ahead of it's time and not lose relevance along the way? Let's Call It A Day, the first album collaboration of German authors Move D (David Moufang) and Benjamin Brunn, proves it is not only possible hypothetically, but can also live amongst us. First appearing on a CD via Bine Music in 2006, it is now remastered here by Calyx and on vinyl for the first time ever. This is a complete piece built from seven sections, each one is a microcosm of unique textures, depth, ambience, emotions, programming, looping, and melodic rules; together they are a homogenous creation, a symphony that culminate in dance music experiencing elevation. Let's Call It A Day, which in a way is the big brother of Songs From The Beehive (SMALL 001CD/LP) - their exhilarating installment for Smallville from 2008 - is an album above the Zeitgeist. The way Moufang and Brunn fuse different genres together without committing to any musical doctrine, makes them appear prophetic. However, it is in no sense a retrospect feeling; even at the time it was clear that the perceptions, experience, vision, and delicacy of this album were outstanding. Every element here, every frequency, rhythm, turnaround or keyboard tapping, is the material from which masterpieces are made of. From the opening meditative, ever-evolving loops of "On The Magic Bus" to the abstract drones of "Grains" with it's almost nonexistent bass drum - like it was aimed to hit the ambient-house craze; through the mesmerizing dubbiness of "A", which sounds like a rave ending in an echo chamber and the constant micro-movement of the arpeggios in the title track; "Ω", which sounds like a soundtrack for a sinking submarine footage and the ambient downbeat of "C-Sick", which melts your heart from within; and finally the closer - the fragile and elegant beauty of "Magnetically Leviated Train". More than 76 minutes of diving constantly deeper and deeper. This new remastered version will feature a brand new and extra glossy Stefan Marx gatefold cover, that will give the perfect visual expression of the album's timeless music. And If there was ever a downside to Let's Call It A Day, it would be it's lack of a vinyl edition. Well, this is exactly what's being sorted out now, isn't it? Gatefold cover.
