"Signaldrift is an electronic music duo from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Originally started by Franz Buchholtz as a solo project in 1998, Signaldrift released several records on various labels before being joined by John Goelzer in 2005. Being not only from the same city but practically the same age and sharing many common influences, the two fell into an easy collaboration through a rigorous gigging schedule during which they started and refined the tracks that comprise Two Agents, their debut album as a duo. Upon a foundation of their favorite film score composers, the duo bolts on diverse styles such as motorik, dub, shoegaze, disco, post-punk, balearic and '80s pop over the course of these eight songs. Limited to 500 copies." Gatefold sleeve.

"Girl is a sleep-dream generated by Franz Bucholtz on a humid Midwestern night. A close look reveals a nuance that his project is never properly lauded for: the ability to refer back to historical styles, while at the same time flawlessly re-combining them into new montages that could never have existed in the moments to which they refer. Bucholtz is an expert at musical-genre trick photography. You'll find yourself 'remembering' an eighties movie soundtrack of granular string sweeps, detuned guitars, and a raucous vintage drum-machine collection, when in fact such a thing never existed; Signaldrift can make you nostalgic for a past of his own invention. Unabashedly sentimental, Girl is a wordless narrative with the details just far enough out of view to keep you coming back to see if you can translate the whole story."
