E2-E4

Göttsching prepared two chords and a basic bassline and improvised, according to Loud and Quiet; the take began with a different rhythm than intended and he nearly stopped it, per Red Bull Music Academy. On playback he found no glitches and said, it was perfect. ChessBase and the 15 Questions interview describe two chords varied throughout, with the guitar entering for about thirty minutes from the halfway mark, and he cited Terry Riley and Steve Reich as models. The vinyl cut about five minutes to fit, and later digital editions are a single track. Zeitkratzer first performed it live in Berlin in 2000.

Reworks include DFC's "Sueño Latino" (1989), Carl Craig's "Remake" and Basic Channel's "Basic Reshape". We do not know which edition our upload is, and found no setlist.fm play count; the artist page lists only two setlists.
