@c’s “Espaço, Pausa, Repetição†reviewed by Toneshift
In these two nearly half-hour long works, otherwise known as ‘Sonic Annotations: Space, Pause, Repetition‘ the duo @C (Pedro Tudela + Miguel Carvalhais) has delivered a multisensory, immersive, site-specific sound installation from three-hundred sound objects (many collaborators). Their video offers a good dose of installation porn, especially if you are into speakers and wires. No joke here as this …

Haarvöl + Xoán-Xil López’s “Unwritten Rules for a Ceaseless Journey†reviewed by Dark Entries
Unwritten Rules For A Ceaseless Journey bevat drie nummers (van telkens een kwartier) die gecomponeerd werden voor de dansvoorstelling Revoluções van choreografe Né Barros. Deze onderverdeling in stukken is niet toevallig, want ze belichamen de formele idealisaties van de drie beslissende lagen der tijd: verleden, heden en toekomst. Hiervoor verantwoordelijk zijn Haarvöl, een collectief uit …
Francisco López & Miguel A. GarcÃa’s “Ekkert Nafn†reviewed by Toneshift

The album title, Ekkert Nafn, is a mash-up of two Icelandic words that effectively translate as “no nameâ€, and this abstract, mysterious title is certainly fitting for the release here on the Cronica label. Francisco López contributes an extended, …

GarcÃa aka Xedh, proposent un titre chacun, intitulé Untitled #351 pour le premier, et Applainessads pour le second.

Francisco López & Miguel A. GarcÃa’s “Ekkert Nafn†reviewed by Fluid Sonic Fluctuations
Welcome to another new review in the Fluid Label Focus series on the Crónica label in which today I’m reviewing an album that I received as a review copy on CD from Crónica quite by surprise. With many review copies nowadays coming in in digital format through the email or other ways, finding an extra …

Welcome to the 18th review in my ever continuing series on the Crónica label in which today I’m reviewing the new @c album Espaço, Pausa, Repetição which was released early this month. The album forms a bit of an anniversary for the label, being release 150 in total and also at the same time celebrating …
