The German-born DJ/producer Christoph Caominh (a.k.a. Caltrop) may release his music on the practically un-Googleable Portland-based Nude Photo Music label, but he calls the Bay Area home. His latest track for the imprint, “Good to See You,” sounds like Caltrop traveling between the three locations. The motorik churn of Kraftwerk’s “Trans-Europe Express” is invoked while Caominh’s brightly colored synths, calming melodies, and passing analog textures call to mind the beach cliffs and mountain tops seen on drives through the Pacific Northwest.
