FE #004 [pau torres - the john leo crow album]
“The 4th release at Frozen Elephants features the spanish/canadian Composer & laptop Musician Pau Torres. His John Leo Crow album (FE004) includes nineteen short and yet impressive compositions based on various Max/Msp patches using skipped recordings as source material. With hardly one track longer than 60 seconds Pau Torres manages to create a dense, disturbing atmosphere, leaving the listener haunted by his imagination, trying to catch breath. There is no obvious comfort in this Music, Pau Torres cut-up compositions ask for close attention. Not unlike an abstract sculpture they present themselves defined by empty spaces, gaps or hollow forms, all wrapped up and stuffed as an unusual idea of sound.”
