David Lee Myers’s “Strange Attractors” reviewed by Radiohörer

Strange Attractors ist ein Beispiel für das, was man Zeitverschiebungsmusik nennen könnte. Eine wechselnde Mischung aus Rückkopplungen, anderen Geräuschquellen und gefundenen Klängen wird in eine Reihe von digitalen Stereo-Verzögerungseinheiten eingespeist, deren Parameter (Verzögerungszeit, Reverse, Freeze usw.) in Echtzeit über LFOs, Sample- und Hold-Regler usw. sowie durch manuelle Live-Anpassungen manipuliert werden, um ein sich ständig weiterentwickelndes …

David Lee Myers’s “Strange Attractors” reviewed by Anxious

Strange Attractors to przykład tego, co można nazwać muzyką Time Displacement. Zmienna mieszanka sprzężeń zwrotnych, innych źródeł hałasu i znalezionych dźwięków jest podawana do serii stereofonicznych cyfrowych delayów, których parametrami manipuluje się w czasie rzeczywistym za pomocą LFO, kontrolerów sampli, a także ręcznych zmian na żywo, aby stworzyć stale ewoluujący pastisz dźwięków. Siedzenie w ciszy (zwłaszcza późno w nocy) i słuchanie tych kompozycji może być dziwnie ekscytujące. …

@c + Drumming GP‘s “For Percussion” reviewed by Inactuelles

En voyant sur la pochette le mot “Drumming”, beaucoup penseront sans doute à la célèbre composition de Steve Reich. Le seul rapport, ce sont les percussions. Extrêmement variées, avec, selon les titres, électronique, ordinateurs, échantillons. Un disque qui semblera difficile, et il l’est, mais ne demande qu’à être attentivement écouté pour livrer ses trésors… Drumming GP désigne …

David Lee Myers’s “Strange Attractors” reviewed by Igloo

Myers has been pushing at the boundaries of electronic music for longer than some folks have been alive, and his continuing explorations within such variegated arenas serve to excite and regularly illuminate the more mundane aspects of existence. Most of this is due to the fact that Myers, whether under his given name or as …

New release: Miguel A. García & Coeval’s “Huncill”

Noise has a mutant nature and harbors poetic correspondences; it is polysemy that demands its translation from the listener. Concepts only make sense through their opposites; thus, noise means everything and means nothing. Miguel A. García (M.A.G., aka xedh), a practitioner of the alchemy of noise for twenty-five years, offers us on this occasion a …
