OT: Intonarumori Review in the Wire
Hey my CDs got reviewed in the July issue of the Wire!
Intonarumori - "Intonarumori" and Intonarumori - "Material"
Noise machinery unpacked in Settle via the absolutist past of futurist
klang (Intonarumori = "noise intoners" = "machines build to mimic
industrial sounds") through the flexible fingers of Kevin Goldsmith, whose
suitably alchemisty name proves to be no dissapointment. The
"industrial"/futurist clue is a dead hearing, because this is far richer
work, ghostlier, more freeform. (Echoes of Nurse With Wound in the light
touch, and low key humour and pert use of sampled vox.) Goldsmith is
primarily a cellist (maniuplator of cells?), but his variegated scrapes
straddle old-skool improv and nu-school electronica, modest except in
inventiveness, somehow very likeable and surprisingly touching; a real
pleasure.
