Philip Samartzis & Eric La Casa’s “Captured Space” reviewed by Neural

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 30 June 2020

Even in Kruger National Park (South Africa), a huge subtropical area, crossed by many rivers and by the Tropic of Capricorn, hosting the provinces of Limpopo and Mpumalanga, it is possible to identify a sharp division between natural and constructed landscapes. The latter are definitely smaller and made almost exclusively to allow the tourists to […]

Welcome to review number 113 on Fluid Sonic Fluctuations in which today I’m featuring the fairly recently released album by Síria titled Boa-Língua. I received this album as a review copy linking to a Bandcamp download code from the Crónica label. Crónica is the label which actually inspired me to start this blog and over […]

García and Oscar Martin in a meeting in the town of Apodaka, in Alava, Basque country, in the year 2015, this electroacoustic piece was originally released by the label Rhizome.s. Never completely satisfied with the result, during this confinement, Miguel A. García decided to revise it, reworking the mix, giving another dimension […]

Rutger Zuydervelt & Bruno Duplant’s “L’incertitude” reviewed by Ambientblog

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 25 May 2020

It’s a funny need to want to introduce an artist in every blog-post but by now I can safely assume that Rutger ‘Machinefabriek‘ Zuydervelt needs no further introduction. And, with over 60 albums released since 2009, Bruno Duplant should need no introduction either – although I must confess his name is not very familiar to me. Shame on me, […]

Síria’s “Boa-Língua” reviewed by Musik an sich

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 22 May 2020

Síria ist das Projekt der portugisischen Elektronik / Perkussionsmusikerin und Sängerin Diana Combo. Boa-Lingua ist Ihr zweites Album nach dem 2016 erschienenen Debüt und ist eher zufällig entstanden, denn die Aufnahmen stammen von Übungen und Sessions, die nicht zwingend zu einem Album führen sollten.Die Musik der Portugiesin ist ein dunkler elektronischer Soundscape. Drones drehen sich um sich […]

New release: Rutger Zuydervelt & Bruno Duplant’s “L’incertitude”

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 5 May 2020

L’incertitude, is Bruno Duplant and Rutger Zuydervelt’s first album as a duo. It came together very naturally, as if they played together for years already. There were no long discussions or conceptual heavy-handedness, these two tracks of pure sound exploration in the most intuitive sense, just flowed from the remote collaboration and the back-and-forth swapping of materials and […]

Rutger Zuydervelt & Bruno Duplant’s “L’incertitude” reviewed by Vital Weekly

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 5 May 2020

Collaborations are another thing that is on Zuydervelt’s plate for many years; with Gareth Davies, Tim Catlin, Subterreanact, Anne Bakker, Chris Dooks and loads more (I thought for once not to mention the more famous ones). This was mostly as ‘Machinefabriek & …’ but maybe it’s wiser, if the other also doesn’t use a project […]

Rutger Zuydervelt & Bruno Duplant’s “L’incertitude” reviewed by Fluid Radio

By Miguel Carvalhais | Published: 4 May 2020

L’incertitude has spent life in two separate countries, but in spite of its long-distance discourse, it offers a natural, uninterrupted flow of sound. For Bruno Duplant and Rutger Zuydervelt, the collaborative process was smooth and intuitive – there were no lengthy discussions, and that has carved a creative outlet into the music, allowing it to be […]
