about

Originally released as a split tape with Miguel A. Garcia & Héctor Rey on Rypistellyt Levyt.

"[o]n the first side we find Ilia Belorukov (alto saxophone, electronics) & Lauri Hyvärinen's (acoustic guitar, electronics) with a live recording from Helsinki, inside a 600 square meter concrete bunker. While this is some damn fine improvised music, the fact that it is recorded in a big bunker is something I didn't hear on this recording. There is a fair amount of grittiness to the music, especially with Belorukov playing something that reminds the listener of sine waves leaping into feedback, while occasionally Hyvärinen's is a damn loud acoustic beast. But they keep their set quite balanced; it can also be very quiet. [--] Both of these sides are quite similar and it's not too difficult to see why appear on a
cassette together. We have here the fine combination improvisation and musique concrete/electro-acoustic music, in the space of two concerts from two different locations by four excellent musicians. (FdW)(FdW, Vital Weekly 1055)
