Comment: this is a subsequent virtual journey around
the world regarding the imprint top-40`s audio-visual teleportative series Sounds and images from… . The recent
issue of three parts is based on the recordings from Malaga, Dilar, San Jose,
Tenerife, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura. The field recordings are recorded by
Vadim Ugryumov. In general, the issue does not surprise because the sounds
represented over there do coincide virtually with other ones based on the same
concept of necessity. For instance, there are up the snippets of street sounds
(the sounds of bypassing motorcycles, for instance), the chirping of cicadas,
speech snippets. In a word, the mechanical sounds are either set against or interwoven
with the organic, natural ones. However, the most striking characteristic are recordings
of the covers of some rock and roll classics. In a nutshell, given that it
embraces a bunch of different, intriguing sounds the result is captivating.
