Comment:
without any doubt the previous year was being very fertile to Lorenzo
Gòmez Oviedo while he had released 4 issues, a couple of them were
released on the French imprint Nowaki Music. One of them,
Pasajes
consists of the long-running progression which is imbued with
remarkably varied sounds, provoking intentions, arousing intensities
and ear-catching phase-related changes. However, the aforementioned
gadgetry is adeptly and wittily set up and thereby ultimately
creating a dynamic pointed whole throughout the course of a
25-minute. Incisive droning noises in the beginning part are followed
by a sublime rhythmic section and cathedral-alike chanting which in
turn are followed by new mind-provoking ones including peppering with
field recording drenched elements. The kind of electronic music
presented by Oviedo is something special because of embracing wider
borders to narrate an interesting, seemingly more loose story to all
of us. Indeed, literally it involves some spoken phrases though it
seems to be a shrewd measure but not the goal on its own. Maybe I am
wrong to guess there is up somewhere the ultimate culmination to be
reached. In fact, it consists of various flood tides therefore
providing a chance to sustain the excitement and pleasure throughout.
Is it the hedonistic one? Yes, in a way but first of all, it is the
cerebral challenge with some bits for our soul and slightly a bit for
the body. It pours out an immense amount of information yet the
information is channelized in an appealing way. Top tier.
