Rui Gato - Transit
Continue reading "Rui Gato - Transit"
"«'Transit' is a transdisciplinary journey through the Muzak concept. Rui Gato masterfully approaches the sensorial trips that we are subject to. An enriching experience of the informative everyday present. There is no shortage of elevator trips, pastoral enchantments, mixtures of instruments from all continents, supersonic airplanes - with stops in Rome, Saint Tomé, Madrid, London and Budapest -, portuguese guitars, the charm of the 'fadista' bum, and Portugal characterized with detail and accompanied by the Ribatejo vineyards, where grape variety 'Tinta Meúda' is produced.
Brian Eno had thought of airports, Rui Gato was more genuine, patriot and, well, more refined and subtle, and chose a wine from his birthplace.
An unparalleled journey.» - Bruno Barros" (From the Test Tube's release page)

Rui Gato - Chaosmos EP
Continue reading "Rui Gato - Chaosmos EP"
"«After some generic and proximity, let's say 'audible', works, Rui Gato returns with a piece divided into three movements. We ask that you do a complete listen of this EP, not because of commercial reasons - we don't ask for money - or even of aesthetic imposition ones, but quite simply because of the Deleuzian way in which Chaosmos EP is presented.
'M1' is nothing more than a landscape of silence, without self-imposed forms. It's the beginning of the order in itself; it's this un-organized state, the 'absolute zero' from where the whole piece starts evolving. 'M2 Extended' assures us that the order is not universal and pummels us to and from distinctive elements in its formal composition. 'M3 Final' is the end, the finish line, a proliferation of material signs that illuminates its unformed character, and even manages to approach chaos. A chaos of image/fragment/fracture/remain.
Musically speaking, the subtleties of dub-soaked disperse particles, fill up the last movement. The comprehension of this work cannot be achieved by accessing the origin, but by understanding the way all the events intertwine (M1+M2+M3) and build their own origins. Apprehend the plurality as a plurality implies that the effects of the unity must not be re-evaluated, in the same way that understanding the difference implies that the effects of the identity this work possess must not be re-evaluated. Superb!» - Bruno Barros" (From the Test Tube's release page)
