style
Ainigma played mostly Krautrock influenced by British rock bands like Atomic Rooster , which mixed elements of blues , psychedelic and progressive rock .
Ragazzi - website for exciting music describes the band's sound as "[...] dirty and [it] sounds heavily like a garage." The keyboards roar, the guitar has a fat, hard sound and the loudly mixed drums are played beautifully powerful. [...] The (cheap) garage sound [...] has weaknesses especially in the longer instrumental parts, but these quirks are particularly charming. "
