Täuschung erweckt den Eindruck ausgedehnter Reflektion. Die zumeist elektronischen Klänge knurpseln längts nicht so selbstverliebt wie ein Großteil der Granularsynthesen sonst vor sich hin. Davor Mikan hat die Strukturen und Entwicklungsstufen auf Täuschung über einen Zeitraum von vier Jahren immer wieder bearbeitet und neu gepflegt. Er sagt selber, dass die Distanz zur Musik für ihn …

“Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Top, Bottom†reviewed by Aufabwegen
Hinter @c stecken die Macher des fantastischen Crónica Labels aus Portugal. Die Kompositionen 62, 71, 72, 61 arbeiten mit kristallinen Digitalisierungen echter Instrumente, die in ihrem fremdbestimmten Nachleben aber eher wie die Insekten der Zukunft klingen. Es herrschen viele Schnitte und Brüche im Sound vor – dennoch ist der Gesamtcharakter ruhig und konzentriert. Durch etliche …

“Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Top, Bottom†reviewed by goûte mes disques
Alors que nous avions laissé Miguel Carvalhais et Pedro Tedula (aka @C) sur une belle collaboration en début d’année avec Vitor Joaquim sur le label Feld, les revoilà de retour au bercail pour un nouvel album qui s’annonce aussi sobre et mystérieux que sa pochette. En fait, @C est assez fidèle à lui-même. On reste …

“Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Top, Bottom†reviewed by Earlabs
Miguel Carvalhais and Pedro Tudela forge their revolutions in the studio and not the street. In their miniaturized, air-conditioned studio-space, a penumbra of field recordings and improvised recordings are shorn of their substance, and then placed in a reified orbit.

Neural reviews “Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Top, Bottomâ€
This atypical album is divided into four tracks of unusual and disparate lengths – the first lasts more than twenty minutes, the second and third are less than two minutes long, and the last stretches out to more than forty minutes. ‘Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Top, Bottom’ by Miguel Carvalhais and Pedro Tudela, aka @C, …
