Arín Dodó – Sinfonías espaciales en el Planeta Ynos (2012)



  • Avant-garde 
  • Experimentalism 
  • Electro-acoustic 
  • Dada music 
  • Improvised music 
  • World music 
  • Free jazz

Comment: Arin Dodò is a collective, which consisted of five members at least at the time of creating and issuing this fabulous 14-piece issue. More profoundly, the release is based on improvised suites being arranged on such instruments as tablas, didgeridoo, clarinet, double bass, piano, and some other ones. At times the voice is exploited in dadaist manner either being elaborated or being presented naturally. In general, the result is frantic and versatile because of conjuring up intriguing and mind-provoking combinations both in sound and stylistic diversity. By kindred souls the combo reminds of Dadala where free jazz meets other styles as electronica, electro-acoustic music and noise in many different manifestations. Furthermore, Arin Dodò adds also a world music dimension to it. It is needless to add that different experimental jazz phases from bebop and post-bop to modal jazz used to surface throughout the course. The issue is a part of the discography of CRLM Office. Fabulous.

Bosques de mi Mente Otoño (Clinical Archives/CRLM Office)


The Spanish artist Bosques de mi Mente (translated as Forests of my mind) is being one of those one-man projects having got huge response under Clinical Archives, CRLM Office, and Jamendo. Since 2007, as a "home artist" therein, he has released 5 albums to date. His music is spotted mainly upon the piano-based modern classic backbone, fringed at times by strong found sound and post-rock influences.

Otoño is a record with the longitude of more than 100 minutes of 27 tracks relied entirely upon live improvisations, recorded during 6 days of the fall of 2010. Aside the silence as impossible conversation (as it was sung by Malcolm Mooney of CAN by-and-by) there are intimate yet affective, mainly minor piano chords, spoken word snippets and wide-range samples (from baby babbles and adult people clashes to elderly individuals` memories), musique concrete-drenched flickers and some violins by Sergio Trujillo, all in all filling in your listening times with the restraint sense and playing up the sparse environment over you, thereby offering a sole realm for thinking of your thoughts and planning your future deeds. Of course, some more radical turns and dodges are up here to be driven into huge impact (Berceuse Macabre) All is rolling on in a silent and minimal way, indeed. It might not be Bosques` best notch but a very solid one nevertheless.
