Here's one brief track of experimental noise from another project of Jorge Castro, probably best know for his work with Cornucopia. This piece contains a little bit of subtle distortion with some rising and falling whirrs that sound almost like airplane engines or something like that. There's one quick break in the opening rhythm that might be a loop point, which breaks up the flow a little bit, but I can live with that since it doesn't sound like a mistake or anything of that nature. The "airplane engine" types of sounds are much less interesting to me than the vibrating waves of light distortion, but those surging waves do drive the piece for most of its entirety. The sound quality is a little one-sided with midrange, there's no great bite of high-end or thick bass in the lower registers, but the end result sounds pretty good, I'm not necessarily bothered by that. The "business card" CD-R comes in a black and white sleeve that looks to have been printed from a home printer and coated with shellac or something, with an illustration fitting of the title on the inside cover. That's about it. An incredibly brief release, and one that leaves a little something to be desired, but an interesting introduction to the project for my ears. I wouldn't be opposed to checking out more to get a better idea of what Origami Subtropika is all about.
