«Big Wheel» is now online at Konkretourist, a german netlabel
Review:
The working method of Portuguese sound artist and folklore researcher Luís Antero is a rapprochement to the tradition of early North-American field collectors and musicologists at the fin-de-siècle.
His tripartite montage Big Wheel paints an atmospheric landscape and is also an intense excursion. An absolutely breathtaking and heartfelt recital of traditions and improvisations accompanied by brilliant environmental sounds of water mills in the Coimbra region.
The gentle listener will conceive wanderlust and finally, after minutes of pilgrimage, he becomes a resident of a spiritual hermitage and enjoys the light-heartedness of a sober and cloistered life.
Antero’s Big Wheel is infectious, abducts the listener with ease and is an important contribution to the konkretourist label catalogue.
