This review is from: Wunderland (Audio CD)

Unknown in North America, Wunderland is a re-issue of the best record from Germany’s Pyrolator. Kurt "Pyrolator" Dahlke was an artist who worked during the early electro-pop days of the 1980's.

Pyrolator incorporates sparse use of early 1980’s electronics with a straight forward melodic sense resulting in music which is timeless, child-like and always uncluttered. Dahlke's strong compositional sense helped him avoid falling prey to the low-tech sounds and disposable attitudes of the artists and equipment of his day.
