This is an excellent piece that manages to shine some light on an otherwise quite enigmatic figure. I never expected that Canavarro would follow up his legendary 1988 album 𝘗𝘭𝘶𝘹 𝘘𝘶𝘣𝘢, but it looks like we might actually get something new from him.
Robert Barry@monsterbobby.bsky.social · yesterdayIt's new issue of The Wire time! This month, I interviewed reclusive mystery man of Portuguese electronic music, Nuno Canavarro and reviewed a festival of sound art in the suburbs of Copenhagen on the hottest day in Danish history.

Our prehistoric ancestors didn’t start making music because they wanted to go viral on instagram or get on a Spotify playlist. The did it because they’d eaten psychedelic mushrooms in a reverberant cave and under those specific conditions it seemed like a fun thing to do.
For @thequietus.com, I review 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘏𝘰𝘭𝘺 𝘓𝘪𝘧𝘵𝘰𝘧𝘧, where flautist Claire Chase and JACK Quartet transform Terry Riley’s open-score sketches into an effervescent, joyful suite. Realised by Samuel Clay Birmaher, the piece captures the playful lightness of Riley's latter-day style.

When flautist Claire Chase launched her call for a new flute repertoire for the twenty-first century, Terry Riley responded in typically idiosyncratic fashion

Spends most of its time in breezy motion and joyous buoyancy, where the 8-part flute chorus generates an updraft that rises vertiginously, past fluffy clouds and into the clarity of the stratosphere. #TerryRiley, Claire Chase, Jack Quartet, Samuel Clay Birmaher - The Holy Liftoff buff.ly/acvNoGJ

On her debut album, Gintė Preisaitė strikes a balance between a meticulously experimental and an endearingly pop-adjacent approach.
