"Sub Static turns 50 -- and Cologne's Golden Red delivers the right soundtrack for the anniversary in a decorative gold label sleeve: Two tracks of cautious efficiency which represent the essence of the Sub Static sound in a surprisingly simple but accurate way. He's a man of many faces: Golden Red, always nice and suave, but never to be underestimated. He knows every trick of the trade and while he's talking to you with the most civilized of manners he will already have another one of those tracks up his sleeve, flattering in the beginning, but always showing off in the end. This music invades you and never lets you go until you dance. The hi-hats drive the sounds like a bunch of drunken cowboys their herd, but there's always a stampede lurking around the corner, which won't be easy to control. By the way the title of the record leads back to the fact that these tracks were made while living in a hotel room for months, after a very bad pipe burst in the apartment. So let's hope for the next pipe to be rotten soon."

"As fate has ordained, the latest signing on Sub Static since the move from Cologne to Berlin is a Cologner. Golden Red he calls himself and we're overly proud to have him with us. His contribution to our recent Odd Pieces #3 compilation already showed his natural addiction to fill the floors, but now he not only crowns that by one, no, by two: two incredibly tight bone shakers, narrating of deeply sensed timing, rich percussion and boisterous euphoria -- stories that we like to hear. Music for neck breakers and ear rufflers, as solid as playful, classically present but still far out in space -- made for immediate approval, definitely."
