“Quark: How Does The Invisible Sound?” launches

Quark: How Does The Invisible Sound? is a media project born with the specific intent of exploring the possible inter-relationship between sound and the invisible, strictly related to science and physics.

“Ab OVO” reviewed by Musik an Sich

Das aus Porto stammende Experimental Elektronik Duo @C existiert seit 2000. Sein neues Album AB OVO ist das Resultat einer Soundtrack Produktion die sie für ein experimentelles Puppenspiel der Portugiesischen Künstlergruppe Teatro de Maronetas do Porto kreierten und Aufnahmen. Wie dieses Soundgebilde ein Puppenstück untermalen kann ist schwer Vorstellbar, aber es wird wohl funktionieren bzw. …

“Meubles” reviewed by Onda Rock

La proposta del compositore lituano Arturas Bumsteinas è di adottare i più tipici stilemi di folktronica e poptronica e di estenderli in lunghe composizioni da camera anziché rinchiuderli in arrangiamenti per canzoni tradizionali. L’ultimo “Meubles” (a seguire i vari “Stories from Organ Safari”, “Heap Of Language”, “Three Sixteens” etc.) è un esempio lampante di questo …

“Ab OVO” reviewed by Sonic Seducer

Seinen Ursprung hat “Ab Ovo” in der musikalischen Begleitung für eine Aufführung des Puppentheaters der portugiesischen Stadt Porto.

“No End of Vinyl” reviewed by Neural

From Crónica Electronica come ten new reinterpretations, reflecting on “the end of vinyl or the end of the world”. Although there is some underlying thematic irony here, the Portuguese label has maintained its customary formal accuracy and clarity of aims with this release, thanks in part to Pure and Miguel Carvalhais. Both have been active …

“Ab OVO” reviewed by Blow Up

Il progetto parte dalla musica per uno spettacolo di burattini. Potrebbe nascere dalla domanda: ma che c’è nella testa di una marionetta? Ma posta non da uno psichiatra, da un fisico esperto in elettromagnetismo. Ne esce un incrocio tra Frankenstein Jr. (ma serio) e Capitan Nemo. Magmatiche maree sonore e derive percussive, con in mezzo …
