"... this is some heavy type of electronic
music. Noise, however, is not the preferred genre here, as they
know how to be quiet, as the
proof in 'Aruk'. That's the longest piece here and it moves from
inaudible to loud and from drones
to cracks and back again. This is something to play with
considerable volume so that the quiet
parts get the attention they deserve and the loud section form
this pleasantly oppressive wall of
sound, ripping your speakers gentle apart (almost). This is an
excellent and one that should not
only appeal to modular aficionados." FdW, Vital Weekly 1215

2 CD set, Zora Records
"... Not so much the world of harsh noise walls, Merzbow
and the like, but
transformed minimalist sounds, slowly developing and changing.
Maybe one could argue this is
musique concrete, even when it seems to lack the collage/cut-up
approach. Also one doesn't
recognize any instruments being processed; or field recordings for
that matter. Just these
occasionally loud sustaining clouds of sound, like being inside a
large turbine hall, without the
hearing protection. But just as easily they drop the volume to the
threshold of hearing (or perhaps
I am deaf now?), with a few sparse sounds, and some earth shaking
bass drones barely audible
but certainly very well present. That happens more on 'Profils
Irrationels' ("the Planetarium piece')
than on 'La Perte Du Temps...", which its deep bass sounds and
loud noise, but seldom with some
quiet movement. This is all not an easy trip, but I found it all
most rewarding." FdW, Vital Weekly 1166

The noise is powerful and short and through the twenty-three minutes
of this piece Akerlund moves from the very quiet to the reasonable loudness. His build up is slow,
minimal and yet dramatic. (FdW, Vital Weekly 1053)
