"Bruno & Michel are smiling does not regard itself as serious music, to say nothing of great art. The music of Bruno & Michel are smiling is pulled through by numerous contradictions. Like thus for example the contradiction between spontaneity on the one hand (in music it can be present as improvisation) and cool abstraction on the other hand (for example mathematical composition techniques). This contradiction is decided in favour of the latter one. Composition at the computer already brings this imbalance structurallywith itself. In addition, the author has dislikes to side with authenticity, because it is considered as bare ideology, in the way authenticity is desired today. The public does not reflect over the condition of authenticity, which is mediated by society, already. Finally, the longing after authenticity led in Germany to Auschwitz."
