“Pastoral†reviewed by Cyclic Defrost
Release no. 55 from the esteemed Cronica label sees acoustic/electronic composer Arturas Bumsteinas flexing his experimental muscles by utilising all manners of acoustic instrumentation and then subtly shifting, looping and distorting various passages to create waves and drones of differing complexities. Whilst essentially remaining an organic set of pieces, each is tinkered with just enough …

“Pastoral†reviewed by De-Bug
Der Eröffnungstrack des Komponisten aus Litauen thematisiert den “Satanspilz”, und dementsprechend geheimnisvoll und unheimlich klingt auch seine Melange aus bearbeiteten Tuba-Klängen mit heruntergepitchten Fieldrecordings und undeutlichen Stimmen in großen Klanggewölben.

Nummer Drei überlagert Geigen- und Bratschenklänge mit schnell hintereinander abgespielten kurzen …

Another release in the “Unlimited” series (therefore free): an album dvoted to Lithuanian/Polish electroacoustician Arturas BumÅ¡teinas.

The whole thing is rather ambient, …
