This is a collaboration between Miguel A. GarcÃa and Durán Vázquez for a split album in Crónica’s Unlimited Series.

“Untitled #284†reviewed by Terz
Wir bleiben den soundtrackartigen Reisen. Der spanische Klangkunst-Experimentalist ist für seinem regen Output bekannt. Dieses 43-Minuten-Stück wirkt in seiner postindustriellen Fragilität nahezu gasförmig, man muss den Klãngen und ihren Verzweigungsbewegungen und Neuformungen nahezu wie in einem abgedunkelten Videogame folgen, dann wird mensch durch neue Wendungen und des Gefühl eines Trip belohnt. Das bereits 1992 nur …
“Queendom Maybe Rise†reviewed by Boomkat
Sound and visual artist, Marc Behrens, arrives on Portugal’s Crónica label with two subtly enveloping, morphing electro-acoustic compositions. ‘Maybe Rise’ follows an expansive, abstract narrative of tunnelling drones and finely layered field recordings reminding of works by his former collaborator, Francisco López and his previous work for label’s such as Raster-Noton and Trent Oiseaux.

Als im März 2010 der isländische Vulkan Eyjafjallajökull ausbrach und damit den flugverkehr über Europa für einige Tage zum Erliegen brachte, gehörte Simon Whetham zu den Gestrandeten. Er nutzte die unfreiwillige Freizeit und streifte mit diverser Aufnahmetechnik durch Lissabon, um die Stadt und ihr Umland akustisch einzufangen. Dabei kamen nicht nur Mikrophone zum Einsatz, sondern …
