Although by no means one of the more prominent acts currently operating in the microsound field, @C have consistently made valuable contributions to the genre, publishing work through labels like Sirr, Room40, Grain Of Sound and of course, Crónica. For this album, the duo render vivid acousmatic soundscapes from a variety of recordings: room sounds, voices, running water and even a stray cello make up this electroacoustic banquet, and it’s all structured in a highly unconventional fashion. The album is bookended by the two most substantial pieces, the first lasting twenty minutes, the last more than double that duration. Through these two lengthy works you’ll bear witness to a vast and evocative auditory environment, coloured by intimately recorded details and enigmatic clouds of drone wafting past. Importantly, youâ€ll find two incredibly brief miniatures wedged between these, proving that @C arenâ€t all about the long haul. These two compositions reveal an incredibly vivid, intensely tactile sound world and break up the other more expansive, pensive pieces. In their own way these 90-second interludes are they key works here, painting rich sonic portraits of some imaginary location. Highly recommended.
