David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Chain DLK
David Lee Myers has been called many things – pioneer of feedback music, sonic cartographer, stubborn alchemist of electronics – but with “Terrenus” he plants his machines firmly in the soil. If so much electronic sound gazes longingly at the stars, Myers insists on digging his fingernails into mud and moss, coaxing voices from tangled …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by African Paper
Gerade erscheint bei Crónica das neue Album “Terrenus” von David Lee Myers. Das Werk versteht sich laut Label als Erkundung rein elektronischer Klänge, die jedoch nicht ins All gerichtet sind, sondern auf die Erde: “Terrenus” wird ausdrücklich als „earth music“ verstanden, nicht als „space music“. In seiner Ausrichtung knüpft es an “Frontier” (2022) an, ebenfalls …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by radiohoerer
Beim Anhören von David Lee Myers‘ „Terrenus” musste ich ein wenig an Brian Enos „On Land” denken. Wenn auch nur entfernt. Könnte das nicht eine Übersetzung in das Jahr 2025 sein? Für mich ergeben sich da durchaus Parallelen. Was denkt ihr dazu? Aber auch ohne diesen Verweis auf Eno ist die elektronische Musik von David …

New release: David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus”
We’re extremely proud to welcome David Lee Myers to Crónica for the fourth time and to present his new album, Terrenus. Terrenus is an exploration in purely electronic sound, and although much electronic music is characterised as “space music”, Terrenus is much more accurately portrayed as “earth music.” This album follows along similar lines to David Lee Myers’s Frontier (2022) …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Anxious
Na swojej najnowszej płycie Terrenus David Lee Myers kontynuuje eksplorację świata czysto elektronicznego brzmienia, jednak z wyraźnym zwrotem ku temu, co ziemskie, namacalne i gęste. W odróżnieniu od wielu współczesnych produkcji elektronicznych, które dryfują ku temu, co kosmiczne i odrealnione, Myers tworzy muzykę głęboko zakorzenioną – zamiast przestrzeni kosmicznych, przywołuje obrazy zamglonych łąk, nieostrych pejzaży i rzek …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Solénopole
On a souvent l’habitude de lever les yeux vers le ciel quand il s’agit de musique électronique, comme si chaque oscillateur n’avait qu’une ambition : rejoindre les étoiles. Terrenus de David Lee Myers, lui, inverse la focale. Ici, les fréquences ne s’évadent pas vers l’infini sidéral : elles s’enracinent. Elles rampent, glissent, se faufilent dans des interstices minéraux, …

David Lee Myers’s “Terrenus” reviewed by Vital Weekly
Sometimes I think Myers becomes a man machine; a man with machines and a man acting like a machine, one release after another. Sometimes the differences aren’t significant, and sometimes they are. ‘Terrenus’ is described by the label as ‘earth music’, in contrast to a lot of electronic music being ‘space music’. I couldn’t say …

David Lee Myers’s “Strange Attractors” reviewed by Neural
Multiple feedback, layers of noise and found sounds undergo several treatments being modified by a series of stereo digital delay units whose parameters (delay time, reverse, freeze, etc.) are manipulated in real time through a low-frequency oscillator or from other analog sampling devices. Many regulations are manual and are made live, with the purpose of …

David Lee Myers’s “Strange Attractors” reviewed by The Sound Projector
Sometimes working under his own name and at other times working as Arcane Device, which he has done since the mid-1980s, New Yorker David Lee Myers creates music using feedback systems, most of which he makes and develops himself. On this recent album “Strange Attractors”, Myers feeds a mix of feedback, found sounds and other …
