New CD release: “Sleppet†by Marc Behrens
Sleppet originated from a sound art project in 2007, when six renowned artists — Natasha Barrett, Bjarne Kvinnsland, Steve Roden, Chris Watson, Jana Winderen and Marc Behrens — recorded sounds on a 10-day trip through the Norwegian Westlandet region and used the nature experience for a couple of sound installations and music pieces. Sleppet leads …

López oder Bernhard Günter unterwegs, sind es bei Behrens die technischen Applikationen selbst, die die von ihm nur …

“Compilation Works 1996-2005†reviewed by Scala Tympani

En réunissant ces 19 titres auparavant disséminés sur autant de compilations, le label portugais Crónica permet de retracer pour la première fois une bonne partie de son parcours sonore.

“Compilation Works 1996-2005†reviewed by Rockerilla
Una doppia compilation che raccoglie il materiale registrato da Marc Behrens tra il 1996 e il 2005. Il primo album autorizzato dall’autore ad essere pubblicato solo in formato digitale. Si tratta di una raccolta di materiale in gran parte edito precedentemente su compilation quindi l’ascolto nell’insieme risulta decisamente discontinuo nonostante l’omogeneità di fondo. La prima …
