Released in 1978, Automat is a fascinating artifact from the early era of progressive electronic music, featuring compositions by Claudio Gizzi and Romano Musumarra. The album showcases the remarkable capabilities of the MCS70 synthesizer, blending funky, rhythmic electronic textures with a distinctly progressive sensibility. Now reissued by the respected German label Bureau B, this recording finds a well-deserved home for a new generation of listeners.
What makes Automat such a compelling listen is its unique fusion of electronic and rock sensibilities — equal parts cerebral and groovy, with synthesizer-driven compositions that pulse with an unexpected energy. The album is structured around the contrasting visions of its two composers, giving it a dynamic, two-sided character that rewards attentive listening from start to finish.
