Breaking away from the instrumental format of previous work, the album used sound taken from deliberately damaged CDs to combine an experimental glitch aesthetic with an accessible pop sensibility.[2] This new approach gave Oval their first major critical attention.[3] In its development of the glitch aesthetic in electronic music, Systemisch influenced the sound of artists such as Autechre and Björk, who sampled the track "Aero Deck" in the song "Unison", from the album Vespertine.[4] The song "Textuell" was used in a perfume commercial by Giorgio Armani.
