Unobtrusive and unconventional hero of British jazz, Martin Archer, is a very well known figure to the readers of this magazine. One of his frequent co-workers is Hervé Perez; both men have been united by their passion to play woodwind instruments and using electronics in a way that it has not got a cold and flat sound and so it gains the spontaneity of improvised music. Perez is being very much helped by field recordings. As duo Inclusion Principle they have just issued a second CD under Archer´s brand-name. It contains eight tracks on the edge of electroacoustic composition and electroacoustic improvisation. Above the fibres of quiet beeping are flying more massive patches of the sound of the highest and the lowest spectrum of audibility, with a sound not dissimilar to whistling in a funnel, but never unpleasant to be listened to. And in addition overtones of friable improvised (oh, that profaned expression) insect music, with surprisingly extended silence among small individual tiny sounds. Nymph Echo lives her own life and apparently she has issued forth a journey of getting an award of unpredictability, but she does not forget that she has to stay graceful and at least a little bit approachable. There is organ vegetating somewhere. The leg sinks into the peat, twitches and squelches. Saxophones are splicing their snakes very rarely and almost exclusively somewhere in a sonic background - they are melodically expressed only at the end of the album and it is a catharsis. Enough of shallow metaphors: I have not heard a better album from Martin Archer yet. - Petr Ferenc hisVOICE

This electroacoustic set retains the spontaneous qualities of a live recording, mashing up abstract textures, field recordings and extended techniques - Jazzwise

First on were a duo made up of Herve Perez (Sndsukinspook) and Martin Archer both with reeds and laptops. Insect like tweets and squeaks gave way to ambient textural sonic scapes combined with some free jazz freak-outs with levels at time almost inaudible. Martin played with some kind of midi wind controller which seem to move somewhere between bass clarinet and church organ. Lovely stuff. - ELECTRONIC MUSIK
