Arriva dall’etichetta portoghese Cronica Electronica un’interessantissima raccolta di produzioni sperimentali, esoteriche e dilatate nelle sequenze, astrazioni di taglio ambientale, oniriche nel caso di Pawel Grabowski, compositore d’origine polacca adesso residente in Irlanda, in forza alla netlabel ‘Silence Is Not Empty’. Altrettanto rarefatte le proposte di Jorge Mantas che utilizzzando il moniker ‘The Beautiful Schizophonic’ c’introduce …

“Product 06†reviewed by Big Load
Die mittlerweile sechste Ausgabe der auf dem portugiesischen Crónica – Label erscheinenden “Product” – Serie wartet mit fein gestricheltem Artwork von C.E.B. Reas auf und eröffnet klanglich recht gut passend mit “But I’m Not”, einer ausgedehnten Meditation des Polen Pawel Grabowski, dessen Radio- und Sinuswellen als statische Loops, leicht morbide Klangschatten werfend, über zwanzig Minuten …
“Product 06†reviewed by Vital
Grabowski also appears on ‘Product 06’ by Cronica Electronica. Until now, two musicians were part of ‘Product’, together with a designer.

“Product 06†reviewed by Gaz-Eta
Sixth in a series of Product releases on the Portuguese Cronica label, “Product 06” features a variety of artists firmly rooted in the electro-acoustic / laptop / experimental side of the spectrum. Polish composer Pawel Grabowski says this about his piece “But I’m Not” which opens this compilation: “But I’m Not is just one, 20 …
“Product 06†reviewed by Blow Up
Arriva al sesto capitolo la serie Product, collana dell’etichetta portoghese Crónica che mette a confronto artisti sonori e visivi da più parti del mondo. Nell’occasione i graffi grafici di Casey B.

“Product 06†reviewed by Infratunes
Sixième compilation de la série Product initiée par le label Cronica electronica, celle-ci rassemble 4 projets soucieux de varier le propos d’une ambient expérimentale parfois trop rigoriste. L’enjeu, pas impossible, demandait pourtant d’autres efforts. Ouvrant le bal, Pawel Grabowski imbrique field recordings et drones, reverses et larsens, dans le but d’illustrer cette étrange fatalité, qui …
“Product 06†reviewed by Touching Extremes
Sixth in the “Product” series, here comes a beautiful split CD which is rather different from the usual criteria of this ever-so-surprising label, being mostly centred around hypnosis and bewitching soundscapes, with engrossing effects on the psyche as a primary consequence. Ireland-based, Poland-born Pawel Grabowski presents a long composition called “But I’m not”, where obfuscated …

â€Lengvai / 60 x one minute audio colours of 2kHz sound†reviewed by Monochrom
Gintas K presents both the most exciting and the most tedious example of what the label calls “experimental digital post techno” on this double release. But it is also sort of like the victory of the organic and naturally flowing musical structure over the completely structural and structurally constructed approach towards music. But, let’s get …

“King Glitch†reviewed by Black
Release 18 und 19 des portugiesischen Labels Cronica Electronica beweisen, wie unterschiedlich doch Arbeiten im eigentlich doch sehr eng gesteckten Feld, was man gut mit “Glitch-Electronic” betiteln möchte, sein können. BJÖRGULFSSON und OHLSSONs “King Glitch” wirkt verspielt, teilweise sogar mit poppigen oder zumindest Songstruktur ähnelnden Anleihen, die Arbeiten von FREIBAND/BOCA RATON hingegen bewegen sich teilweise …
