FOR ALL THOSE OF YOU WHO FACED SLIGHT PROBLEMS CONCENTRATING ON THE MUSIC SUPPLIED ON RATHER INTERESTING´S PREVIOUS RELEASE (MUSTER), NOW, HERE COMES SOMETHING MORE CONCRETE AND DIGESTABLE: „MUSIC IS BETTER THAN PUSSY“ - IN FACT A TITLE THAT DOESN´T NEED MUCH OF AN EXPLANATION.
THE MUSIC ON THIS ALBUM ITSELF REFLECTS THE TITLE PRETTY WELL, AS EACH OF THE 5 TRACKS EXPLORES MUSICAL THEMES IN A VERY PURE AND STRAIGHT-FORWARD MANNER, USING FAIRLY WELL-KNOWN SONIC CODES. THE TRACKS, EACH BETWEEN 6 TO 14 MINUTES IN DURATION, DEAL WITH REPETITIVE, POLYRHYTHMIC STRUCTURES, GLUED TOGETHER BY STEADY KICKDRUMS, AN ELEMENT ONE DOESN´T HEAR VERY OFTEN ON A “RATHER INTERESTING“ RELEASE! TRACKS SUCH AS „YOUR AMBITION“, „VALUE IS NOTHING“ OR „TANZFLÄCHE“ DEVELOP POWERFUL RHYTHMICAL THEMES OVER LAYERS OF TEXTURES AND SEQUENCES, WHILE OTHER TITLES („CLICKTRACK“, „SUCK MY GROOVE“) DEAL WITH THE FUNK ITSELF. A SUBTLE LEITMOTIF OF „MUSIC IS BETTER THAN PUSSY“ ARE SHORT, PARTLY SUNG OR SPOKEN VOCALS THAT APPEAR ON ALMOST ALL OF THE TRACKS.
„MUSIC IS BETTER THAN PUSSY“ COHERENTLY CONNECTS ATOM™´S OWN MUSICAL PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE AND INTRODUCES A GIANT RETROSPECTIVE OF HIS WORK IN 2010, THE YEAR IN WHICH HE CELEBRATES HIS 20TH RELEASE ANNIVERSARY.


The tracklist is as follow :

1. Clicktrack
2. Your Ambition
3. Tanzfläche
4. Value is Nothing
5. Suck My Groove


ATOM™ provided the lyrics on his Myspace :

- CLICKTRACK -

Where is your clicktrack?
You make me sick.
The way you tick.

Where is your clicktrack?

Is there a guideline,
or just the white line?

Drugs
Money
Sound

- SUCK MY GROOVE -

Stop, don't move.
Your mind is a blank.
So I find this a moment to be frank.

- VALUE IS NOTHING -

You feel free to breakdown.
Any value is nothing.
I do see me to breakdown any.
Value is nothing.

- YOUR AMBITION -

What's your ambition?
Is it the chicks, the speed, the recognition?

What's your ambition?
Is it the drugs, the bucks?
What's your real mission?

What's your ambition?
The real agenda that makes you take decisions.

What's your ambition?
The strategy behind your coalitions

Is love or hate,
or childhood trauma
the engine of your fate?

What's your ambition?
