Neural
Ritorna Dmytro Fedorenko, in arte Kotra. Nel suo nuovo progetto pubblicato per Alku su cd 3" si sperimentano radicali frequenze ottenute utilizzando un vecchio radio-microfono sovietico (1958). Grazie all'ausilio d'un mixer ed integrando questi apparecchi con non meglio specificati dispositivi auto-costruiti il risultato è quello d'un feedback ispirato. L'effetto complessivo diluito in tredici piccole incisioni per un totale di circa venti minuti è interessante e poderoso, soprattutto nelle insolite dinamiche acustiche, sebbene con modalità similari questo tipo di sonorità siano abbondantemente investigate nell'ambito delle attuali scene d'elettronica radicale.

Vital
Dmytro Fedorenko is Kotra from Kyiv, Ukraine. He has played in various bands before turning electronic and as Kotra he has played with various people. "'Ampere' was made with the old (1953) soviet radio microphone, mixer and some self-made devices" - which are all locked inside the mixing board with all the connections together: feedback is the result. Thirteen small, sketch like pieces, but don't let the word 'sketch' mislead you: this is serious hardcore headache noise. It's stuff that has been done before and will be done later, and Kotra is not the worst representative of this kind of thing, but I heard such thing maybe a bit too much in my life. I pass on instead of out.
