…and still on position 5.
Keys (one of the leading german magazines for musicproduction) reviews the current Autoaggression album like this:
Music 9/10 | Sound 9/10
Autoaggression beglückt Liebhaber ausgefeilter Electronica mit einer neuen Veröffentlichung. „Artefacts“ bietet genau das, was bereits der Albumtitel verspricht: digitale Klangfragmente, Sample-Reste und scharfkantige Rhythmus-Loops, die Chef-Aggressor Lukas Schneider mit der Präzision eines Feinmechanikers geschichtet und neu montiert hat, bis sie als höchst individualistische Elektronik-Kompositionen Gestalt gewinnen. Die fein gravierten Sound-Texturen laden zum konzentrierten Lauschen ein – allerdings nur so lange, bis bereits der dritte Titel den Hörer unverhofft auf die Tanzfläche bittet. „Artefacts“ verweilt nicht bei minimalistischen Ambient-Tracks, sondern bietet auch Industrial-Fans, Glitch-Freunden und Techno-Jüngern Hörenswertes. Verbindendes Element der abwechslungsreichen elf Stücke ist die präzise Detailarbeit von Lukas Schneider, der mit „Artefacts“ ein Ausrufezeichen hinter das Wort „Elektro“ setzt. (wus)
Autoaggression pleases electronica lovers with a new release. "Artefacts" contains what the title promises: digital soundfragments, sample-grains and sharpedged rhythmnloops, which are put together with the precision of a clockmaker by chief-aggressor Lukas Schneider, until they come to life as very unique electronic compositions. The finely graven soundtextures call for concentrated listening - but only untill the third title pulls the surprised listener to the dancefloor. "Artefacts" refuses to be just a minimalistic Ambient album, but offers industrial fans, friends of glitch and even techno disciples music to enjoy. The connenction between those variing eleven tracks is the precise detail work by Lukas Schneider, who puts with "Artefacts" an exclamation mark behind the word "electro". (wus)
Artefacts still remains to be on place no.4 in the DAC (german alternative charts)
Artefacts climbes to position 4 in the german alternativecharts!!!

It takes little more than 60 seconds of Lukas Scheider’s second Auto Aggression album to realise that in the twilight of their existence, Dependent may have been on the cusp of bringing a significant new talent to a wide audience. One that can shoulder the pressure of names like Autechre, Haujobb, and William Orbit without buckling and, what’s more, push back one of the most arresting LPs on Dependent for sometime.
