Review by Arthur Gillies

Horror Odyssee, the collaborative album between Big Robot and Conrad Schnitzler, is an eerie and unsettling journey through the depths of electronic music. The album is a fusion of Big Robot's dark, experimental soundscapes and Schnitzler's pioneering work in the field of electronic music.

The album features six tracks that are each unique in their own way. The opening track, "The Arrival", sets the tone for the album with its ominous, pulsating beat and haunting synth melodies. "The Descent" takes the listener on a journey through a dark and foreboding underworld, while "The Encounter" is a tense and atmospheric track that builds to a crescendo of distorted noise.

"The Escape" is a more upbeat track that features a driving beat and catchy synth hooks, while "The Pursuit" is a frenetic and intense track that is sure to get the adrenaline pumping. The album closes with "The Return", a haunting and melancholic track that brings the journey full circle.

Review by Jon Tyler :
"After Big Robots impressive debut "Aquafit", I have been looking forward to seeing how they would follow it up, and "Horror Odysee" certainly doesn't disappoint.
Opening with Kalter Hund, a Neu - La Dusselldorf style raucus rocker, with wailing distorted guitars over manic vocals. Punk drives head on into a wall of sound.
After this adrenaline-fueled opener the pace slows for "Inner Robotics" the first of 2 lengthy tracks which take up the rest of the album. Beginning with industrial white noise, a simple bass line takes you through all manner of expanding synth sounds and fine detail, and some delicate electric piano, "Riders on the cosmic storm". after nearly 7 melodic minutes the structure starts to break down and chaos rules, though there are brief rhythmic episodes amid this chaos.
It's difficult to know for sure, but I would suspect that Conrad Schnitzler's influence is greater during this magnificent electronic mayhem.
Though it is continuous, Inner Robotics is split into 5 parts and although there are no id changes, it's pretty easy to hear where the piece divides.
Outer Robotics begins with cymbals and electronic noise over a simple melody, the melody fades as the noise builds and once more we have blissfull chaos.
Melody returns after around 5 minutes.
7 minutes in comes the albums most unexpected mood swing with a "toxic cantina" piece, a little jazzy and strangely humorous, a little light relief on the horror odyssee.
Some of the later pieces are reminiscent of early Tangerine dream (when they were great) or mid phase Pink floyd.
Awesome".
