Soundscapes ottenuti attraverso la rielaborazione di registrazioni effettuate in posti esotici della Norvegia come il ghiacciaio Brenndalsbreen o il lago Røsskleivvatnet, luoghi i cui soli nomi evocano boschi impenetrabili, oscurità e freddi artici. Behrens ha un modo tutto suo di plasmare le proprie composizioni, assai diverso da altri autori che in passato hanno sperimentato utilizzando …

“Sleppet†reviewed by Goûte Mes Disques
Tout a commencé par un voyage entre amis. Mais attention, là où nos voyages entre amis finissent dans des orgies de sexe et d’alcool, ici le propos est tout autre. Et pour cause, puisqu’il s’agit en fait d’un voyage entre scientifiques du son électronique: Natasha Barrett, Bjarne Kvinnsland, Steve Roden, Chris Watson, Jana Winderen (chronique …

“Sleppet†reviewed by The Sound Projector
Another hero of barely-existing music is the great Marc Behrens, whose Sleppet (CRÓNICA 046) began life in 2007 with a bunch of nature recordings made in Norway.

“Sleppet†reviewed by Monsieur Délire

“Sleppet†reviewed by Vital
Its been a while, I think, since I last heard music by Marc Behrens. Perhaps he is not as active anymore when it comes to releasing records? And perhaps more doing commissioned works by, say, German radio? Like this one, which was made for Deutschlandradio Kultur. Unless I am mistaken, I think I heard him …
