“Unfurling Streams†reviewed by Ambient Blog
If you check the back catalogue of Monty Adkins (which I definitely think you should), you’ll find that he often chooses a single instrument to work with and then starts exploring its possibilities and manipulating its sounds. And while the starting point and sounds are very different to begin with, he manages to create a …

“Unfurling Streams†reviewed by Rockerilla
Il compositore inglese Monty Adkins continua a pubblicare dischi meravigliosi. Unfurling Streams si nutre degli stessi riflessi accecanti e delle stesse lunghezze d’onda degli imperdibili Four Shibusa (Audiobulb, 2012) e Borderlands (Audiobulb, 2015). Sei lunghe tracce senza titolo costruite sui suoni di percussioni registrate dallo stesso Adkins insieme all’amico Jonny Axelsson. Riverberi di armonici legati …

“Ma·Org Pa·Git Re·Mx†reviewed by Nordische Musik
Ein Dialog entsteht wiederum durch das nur als Download erhältliche Zusatzalbum »MA.ORG PA.GIT RE.MX«, für das Rishaug elf von ihm bewunderte, internationale Musiker mit Remixen der beiden Stücke beauftragte. So entstanden teils vollkommen andere, reizvolle Electronica-Arbeiten, vorrangig minimalistischer Natur, versteht sich. Empfehlenswert etwa die melodiöse DubTechno-Fantasie von Svalastog oder der zugleich nervöse wie schwebende Retrofuturismus …

“Ma·Org Pa·Git†reviewed by Nordische Musik
Lange in der Mache war Alexander Rishaugs Nachfolger des exzellenten »Shadow of Events«. Noch minimalistischer, noch offener, mehr Ambient und Field Recordings und alles in allem weitaus experimenteller als unsere damalige »CD des Monats« ist das Ergebnis der bereits im Januar 2012 aufgenommenen zwei epischen Tracks. Dieses Werk erscheint gleich gar nicht mehr als CD, …
