“Product 02” reviewed by Etherreal

L’album est donc divisé en deux parties, toutes les deux à peu près sur le même ton, tandis que c’est la construction des morceaux qui change un peu. La première partie, Tropical Agent, composée de neuf morceaux, propose autant de variations sur des boucles acoustiques complètement retravaillées au laptop, afin de les rendre plus fragiles, …

“Further Consequences of Reinterpretation” reviewed by Funprox

Like its title suggests it is a further interpretation and reworking of a work called “0.000” that was once released by Japanese artist Nosei Sakata (perhaps better known as *0). The original work of Sakata contained no audible sounds, and was therefore ideally open for interpretation. The work was “remixed” and reworked by a score …

experimental bands and now does audio-visual work. He works with computer processed sound and field recordings. Much to my surprise, the main instrument being fed into the computer is the guitar, which is rather joyfully being processed in the first work ‘Tropical Agent’, which are nine tracks in total. In a strange the music is …

Aqui, a primeira parte é ocupada com “Tropical Agent”, título que nos remete logo para os campos do romance policial. O resto da sugestão é dado pelos títulos dos temas, tais como “Silent Siren”, “Guitar String / Empty Streets”, “Flat tire at the dead sea” ou “Triggers of Violence”. Escutados, são registos bem menos lineares …

“Further Consequences of Reinterpretation” reviewed by Rui Eduardo Paes

Músico electroacústico e videasta com formação em filosofia e cinema, Paulo Raposo está em fase de particular afirmação. Vimos recentemente o espectáculo intermedia que idealizou com base num texto de Raul Brandão, «Húmus», e com as colaborações de Carlos “Zíngaro” e do actor António Saboga, e assistimos às suas manipulações vídeo no espectáculo «Senso», do …

“Further Consequences of Reinterpretation” reviewed by Urban Mag

Paulo Raposo is de man achter het Portugese experimentele Sirr.ecords. ‘Further Consequences of Reinterpretation’ is een verregaande samenwerking met de experimentele muzikant Marc Behrens. Het idee voor de cd kwam oorspronkelijk van de Japanse minimale geluidsartiest Nosei Sakata of *0. Diens cd ‘0.000’ bevatte geluid dat buiten de menselijke gehoorgrens lag. Dus kreeg je een …

“Product 02” reviewed by Sonomu

I wish more laptop electronica so readily betrayed its human origins as this CD, emananting warmth from the zeros and ones, however paradoxical that sounds. This reviewer first encountered Ran Slavin in the role of remix artist on Walking in Jerusalem by Random Inc. (aka Sebastian Meissner). His CD is the second installment in Crónica’s …

“Product 02” reviewed by Black

Doch genug zu Äußerlichkeiten, es ist ja auch noch Musik auf der CD: Der erste Teil des “Produkts” steht unter dem Namen “Tropical Agent” und besteht größtenteils aus bearbeiteten Samples, die mich ein wenig an mediterrane Gitarren erinnern. Das Puzzle aus diesen Fragmenten wird noch durch ein paar digitale Glitches umrahmt, so dass eis recht …

“Further Consequences of Reinterpretation” reviewed by Bad Alchemy

Ausgangspunkt dieser Konzeptsequenz war die CD 0.000 von Nosei Sakata. Die enthält überwiegend Töne, die vom menschlichen Ohr nicht wahrgenommen werden können. Die Prämisse, dass man Alles quasi aus Nichts erschaffen kann, führte, indem sich Elektroniker wie Aube, Behrens, Richard Cartier, Hsi-Chuang Cheng, Bernhard Günter, John Hudak oder Steve Roden demiurgisch zu schaffen machten, zur …
