Haarvöl è il nome di un progetto musicale portoghese fondato da Fernando José Pereira, João Faria e Rui Manuel Vieira.

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Chain DLK

David Lee Myers has been called many things – pioneer of feedback music, sonic cartographer, stubborn alchemist of electronics – but with “Terrenus” he plants his machines firmly in the soil. If so much electronic sound gazes longingly at the stars, Myers insists on digging his fingernails into mud and moss, coaxing voices from tangled …

Matilde Meireles’s “Loop. And Again.” reviewed by Musique Machine

Loop And Again is a CD album themed around magnetic fields. It blends recordings of said fields, drone texturing, sudden pitch rising detail, and general field recordings. The three tracks featured are eventful, moody, at times atmospherically jarring- with a sound that dips in electro ambience, pressing drone texturing, and even droned out avant jazz. …

Simon Whetham’s “Successive Actions” reviewed by Musique Machine

Successive Actions takes in sixteen tracks built around recordings of motorised devices, sourced from obsolete consumer technology. Track lengths vary between one and eleven minutes, with the recordings moving between textural studies, erratic blending of several different elements, and all-out/ intense sound crafting.The CD album comes presented in a dark blue card gatefold featuring what looks …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by radiohoerer

Beim Anhören von David Lee Myers‘ „Terrenus” musste ich ein wenig an Brian Enos „On Land” denken. Wenn auch nur entfernt. Könnte das nicht eine Übersetzung in das Jahr 2025 sein? Für mich ergeben sich da durchaus Parallelen. Was denkt ihr dazu? Aber auch ohne diesen Verweis auf Eno ist die elektronische Musik von David …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Anxious

Na swojej najnowszej płycie Terrenus David Lee Myers kontynuuje eksplorację świata czysto elektronicznego brzmienia, jednak z wyraźnym zwrotem ku temu, co ziemskie, namacalne i gęste. W odróżnieniu od wielu współczesnych produkcji elektronicznych, które dryfują ku temu, co kosmiczne i odrealnione, Myers tworzy muzykę głęboko zakorzenioną – zamiast przestrzeni kosmicznych, przywołuje obrazy zamglonych łąk, nieostrych pejzaży i rzek …

Haarvöl’s “Horizons of Suspended Zones” reviewed by Chain DLK

Haarvöl have always seemed like time-travelers in reverse: instead of racing toward the future, they slow it down, dissolve it, leave it to drip into pools where sound lingers like dew on glass. “Horizons of Suspended Zones”, their new release on Crónica, is very much in this spirit – a refusal to obey the tempo …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Solénopole

On a souvent l’habitude de lever les yeux vers le ciel quand il s’agit de musique électronique, comme si chaque oscillateur n’avait qu’une ambition : rejoindre les étoiles. Terrenus de David Lee Myers, lui, inverse la focale. Ici, les fréquences ne s’évadent pas vers l’infini sidéral : elles s’enracinent. Elles rampent, glissent, se faufilent dans des interstices minéraux, …
