OREN AMBARCHI & MARTIN NG - RECONNAISSANCE (CD by Staubgold)

Martin NG is a new name to me. An electronic musicians, whose works seem
to include collaborations with Hiaz Gmachl (of Farmers Manual fame) and
Jim Denley (of Split Records fame). Oren Ambarchi surprised us before
with his excellent 'Insulation' on Touch and his involvement in a live CD
with Rehberg, Pimmon, Fennesz and Rowe. Sturdy experimentalism from down
under here at stake. They play three tracks, two relatively short (7
minutes) and one long, all three seem to be dealing with drones,
overtones and feedback.

There are hints of Alvin Lucier's work in a sense that these pieces are
moving through your space and if you walk around you will notice the
changes of these tones. The same effect can be had if you sit in front of
the speakers and you move your head slowly. This kind of music doesn't
need to be played loud per se. In fact it worked better for me at a
relatively low volume (dare I tell that it caused me headache at a loud
volume?), it filled the room much better. This takes minimal music into a
new direction. (FdW)
