In a review that spans Richard Barrett’s Dark Matter and Han-earl Park’s io 0.0.1 beta++, Tim Owen (Dalston Sound) praises Barrett and Park’s ‘Numbers’ (CS 201 cd) for its “multifarious attractions” found in a “wealth of microscopically teeming detail”: Numbers is a complex melange of retro/futurist synth sounds, glitch electronica, guitar-sourced whammy-bar pitch-bending and hard-scrabble [...]

Annea Lockwood on io 0.0.1 beta++
The website of machine improviser io 0.0.1 beta++ quotes the composer and explorer of our relationship to everyday (and not so everyday) artifacts, Annea Lockwood’s response to ‘io 0.0.1 beta++’ (SLAMCD 531): The interaction between io and the three other players is really supple… and I like very much the gritty complexity of io’s vocabulary, [...]

CD reviews: io 0.0.1 beta++
First set of reviews of the CD ‘io 0.0.1 beta++’ (SLAMCD 531) including Beppe Colli’s take in which the “flesh-and-blood musicians” (Han-earl Park, Bruce Coates and Franziska Schroeder) demonstrate “excellent rapport” and “a good dose of telepathy”, while the machine musician (io 0.0.1 beta++) “works as a valuable stimulus for its fellow musicians”: Closing track [...]
