I love Dirk's music and got the lot. I like it so much I had to have it all (well what's available) on vinyl. This is PROPER old-school Berlin-school. In the studio, brilliant, Live pure magic. Thank you Dirk.
Favorite track: dark enck.

In 1986 I ran over on old gypsy woman who, with her dying breath, cursed me with a love of sequencers and a burning hatred of mellotrons. Every day, I give thanks to Cosmic Ground without whom, my life would not be worth living.

honestly this album takes quite a bit of time and many listening rounds to actually "get into". No doubt it is technically excellent, with more advanced composition elements than earlier records, however it isn't that easily accessible either. Perhaps this is actually a strength as each time you will listen to there will be more details to discover. Martin R

Yup, the 70's era Tangerine Dream style may draw you in but, they're not a rip off; they have their own voice, and a mesmeric one it is. Worth getting entire back catalogue? Probably ... yeah! vykr

Emotionally stirring avant-techno from Surgeons Girl, offering a field of percolating analog synths to get lost in. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 18, 2022

Some of the most exciting Berlin School electronic music I've heard in recent decades, and this is my favorite. On a par with Michael Hoenig's classic Departure From the Northern Wasteland.
