Viktar Siamashka - h.M (2012)



8.8

/Improvised music, Experimentalism, Avant-garde, Electro-acoustic/

Comment: Viktar Siamashka`s 6-piece album is recorded somewhere in the abandoned industrial buildings in Minsk, Belarus. By the conceptual  side it seems to be a quite intriguing outlet due to mixing up acoustic woodwind instruments (flutes, clarinets) with bleak echoes and dystopian feelings coming out from within those rooms with massive walls. Substantially according to such a technical approach of music it is generally restricted with the compositional linearity where the questing chords are swiftly followed up by each other backed up by organic noises coming out of the streets. Now and the the border lines and intention between the mentioned parts get blurred resulting in melting into each other at ease. All in all, it is an exciting issue mandatory for all those melomans who avidly do sympathize with the ideas of improvised music.
