Melhor sucesso tem o «Product» que reúne duas facetas bem distintas de um mesmo músico, Ran Slavin, tratadas, devido até à natureza da colecção, como se de dois criadores se tratasse. Se o Slavin da primeira metade, «Tropical Dance», passa por um conceito do “sampling†devedor das manipulações bem-humoradas e joviais de Carl Stone, o …

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, …
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”, tÃtulo que nos remete logo para os campos do romance policial. O resto da sugestão é dado pelos tÃtulos 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 …
Dir kompositionen offenbaren ihre eigenartige und fragile Schönheit in langsamer und konzentrierter Entwicklung durch separate Tracks, die in bizarr konstruierter Feinarbeit aufeinnder hin arrangiert sind. Das so entstehende Panorama aber ist organisch und sinnlich.
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 “ZÃngaro†e do actor António Saboga, e assistimos à s suas manipulações vÃdeo no espectáculo «Senso», do …

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 …

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 …
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 …
