On Berlin's Aim, the subtler grooves of Rau's previous album 'Two' give way to wilder curiosities. 'O'Hare' uses field recordings from Chicago's main airport and a perky tempo amidst wandering lulling synths, delicious complex grooves in 'In the water' and phantasmic 'Love is' dive into heady listening pleasure.

After stints on Aim and Pampa talented producer Christopher Rau returns to Smallville for his sophomore album. 'Two' skillfully balances out the disco loops and Moodymann references with deeper and more abstract synth and sampler workouts. House music for the late hours.
