REVIEWS

  • AMBIENTRANCE (US)

    "Between Two Points represents the talents of this subgenre's finest sound-sculptors"

  • BLOW UP (IT)

    "You find here the general staff of microwave nomenclature in its full glory."

  • ELECTRONIC MUSIC REVIEWS (.COM)

    "You start to focus on hearing - something? Nothing? It's not clear. But no, the sound is there; it's just so faint it magnifies the silence itself, forcing you to hear that silence differently (in the very best John Cage tradition)."

  • FREE WILLIAMSBURG (US)

    "It successfully pushes the boundaries of silence and sound within the digital context."

  • HAUNTED INK (US)

    "Between Two Points is, to me, what electronic music should be all about"

  • ON RUMORE (IT)

    "Between Two Points sets itself exactly the target to define the different grounds of influence and sound aesthetics of the two associates, a catalogue of stylized microrhythmic textures for the releases of the former, digital reductionism in its terminal state for those of the latter."

  • INSIDER ONE (US)

    "Their subtlety raises the question of whether they're "pieces" at all, or simply the unheard hum of the inner ear, magnified and laid bare."

  • VITAL WEEKLY (NL)

    "This compilation is much more varied then the Clicks & Cuts one, and opens not just new ways to dance music, but also to the "serious" side of things."

  • THE WIRE (UK)

    "Between Two Points highlights abraded ambience and sandpapery sustain."

  • XLR8R (US)

    "Representing forthcoming works in the minimal microsound genre, this compilation assembles current and future label artists on Taylor Deupree's 12k label on a release that brings to the forefront an aesthetic of miniature blips and beeps, scratches and other background noise"
