    Above all else, it feels as though Xylitol is making the music that feels right to her. The feeling is contagious.

    Xylitol's music approaches jungle from a unique perspective, channeling the experimentation and hypnotic power of kosmische music while fully understanding the exciting impact of heavy bass and explosive breakbeats.

    Each of these tracks finds a new texture or wrinkle in retro sounds, tapping into emotions that are evocative but hard to pin down, and showing off colors that hint at a once bright past beneath their faded exteriors.

    The rave and kosmische elements converge in some ways and pull apart in others, and Blumenfantasie is at its weakest is where the vibes are simply too misaligned. The combined effect the rhythms surging forward and the melody luxuriating outwards feels like trying to drive a car in too low a gear. [Jun 2025, p.65]
