“Lemuria” reviewed by Fluid Radio

Lemures is the duo of Enrico Coniglio and Giovanni Lami, both members of the collective AIPS (Archivo Italiano Paesaggi Sonori, or the Italian Archive of Soundscapes) and contributors to the Postcards from Italy project. They take their name from the same Roman spirits of the dead after whom Carl Linnaeus named a species grouping of …

Lemuria ( Crönlca 083-2013, LP) ist wohl meine erste Bekanntshaft mit dem Venezianer Enrico Coniglio, einem in Projekten wie Aqua Dorsa und Herion oder auch als My Horne, Sinking aktiven Topophoniker, dessen Sophistlcatlon Wörter wie Koumponophobia (Angst vor Knöpfen) einschließt, auch wenn er sich damit nur als Leser von Neil Gaimans Coraline outet. An seiner …

“Lemuria” reviewed by Chain D.L.K.

Not to be confused with those lovely primates living in the island of Madagascar – Lemurs in Po Valley could be an oddity for zoologists indeed -, even if the name of this album could be puzzling as Lemuria is also the name of the hypothetical “lost land” where lemurs came from and the first …

“Lemuria” reviewed by Beach Sloth

“Lemuria” reviewed by Blow Up

Il duo composto da Enrico Coniglio and Giovanni Lami utilizza field recordings ed elaborazione digitale per creare soundscapes dai toni avvolgenti estremamente dilatati, che spesso si espandono sino a lambire i territori dell’ ambient. In “Lemuria” la cura del dettaglio nell’ opera di tessitura elettronica si coniuga con efficacia al flusso impressionista generato dalla progressiva …

“Lemuria” reviewed by The New Noise

“Nelle credenze religiose di Roma antica, anima o spettro vagante di defunto che tornava sulla terra per molestare i vivi”. Così dice il mio Zingarelli del lemure, mentre apprendo da Wikipedia che le “Lemuria” siano delle cerimonie dell’Antica Roma attraverso la quale esorcizzare i morti. Dietro a questo progetto troviamo Enrico Coniglio, ormai sound artist …

“Lemuria” reviewed by Monsieur Délire

Je préfère l’approche électroacoustique de Lemures (Giovanni Lami et Enrico Coniglio) à celle de Rafael Anton Irisarri: événements sonores disjoints qui se rencontrent sur un fond de bruitisme sinusoïdal. Moins cinématographique et plus confondant, chose que j’aime. Objets sonores, enregistrements de terrain, dispositifs électroacoustiques qui donnent aux quatre pièces un air hybride entre la musique …
