Juno Review: Center is Tobias Freund’s third studio album for Ostgut and its title provides a good indication of where its author is at. It veers in style from the dense electro of “Cr 24” to the experimental abstractions of “Autopoiesis” and “Single Minded” and ominous dark ambient compositions like “In Between”. There is more dance floor friendly techno tracks such as “Blind Mass”, but it is not like Freund makes conventional music and both “Mass” and “Syndrome” resound to stepping rhythms, layered textures and insistent percussion. This has a lot to do with Freund’s background as a studio engineer and his perfectionist approach, and it feels like every note, tone and frequency on Center has been carefully, expertly calculated.
