“The Mediterranean Drift†reviewed by Blow Up
Pronunciata essenza acustica, a dispetto del gran lavorio digitale, pure per l’album dell’israeliano Ran Slavin scaricabile gratuitamente dal sito della Crónica. Prima sezione d’impianto nostalgico e meditativo, vieppiù pervasa da un forte senso di allagamento, di quieto rimestare di acque, seconda leggermente più ostica, assaltata dall’infernale paesaggio marittimo di Vernet in copertina quale esplicito riferimento …

“The Mediterranean Drift†reviewed by Cyclic Defrost
Ran Slavin, ‘Film Maker / Artist / Director-Writer / Sound Producer’, rhymes with Dan Flavin, the late American neon minimalist, but there the similarities end, at least as concerns his latest album, the free-to-download The Mediterranean Drift on the criminally underrated Cronica label. Based partly around the threat and turmoil of the present day middle …

“Passeports†reviewed by Ondarock
Dopo le “Parcelles”, il francese Mathias Delplanque estremizza la sua tecnica mista di field recordings “narrativi” e ambient digitale nei “Passeports”, un’eccezionale prosecuzione post-cosmica degli “Airports” di Brian Eno. Il primo “Passeport” calibra il tono delle sue “cosmicomiche”. Una scenografia sia subliminale che ipnotica (o, meglio ancora, onirica) espone con coerenza le possibilità liriche della …

“The Mediterranean Drift†reviewed by Terz
Slavin, seit über 15 Jahren auch ein umtriebiger Klangaktivist, ist u. a. bekannt für seine (alp)traumhaften Erzählungen zwischen der fernen Vergangenheit und der nahen Zukunft. Sein aktuelles Album, über Crónicaelectronica.org als free download erhältlich – Spenden werden natürlich gerne genommen -, ist wie geschaffen für eine politische Metapher für die Gegenwart. Unplakativ, unsloganhaft und indirekt, …
