4.0 out of 5 stars
to err is musical, 6 Jun 2000
By Matthew D. Mercer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Prototypes (Audio CD)
Carsten Nicolai has returned from the ultra-austerity of his Noto releases with the variant Alva Noto. Prototypes is easily the most accessible thing he's recorded, but that's not saying much. What it does say is that he's come back from the outer limits of sound treatments and DSP gadgetry to create a strangely musical hybrid of fuzzy pops, clicks, chimes and blips which is less like an album of songs and more a series of meditations on technology. It is notable that Nicolai was one of the first to really exploit the possibilities of minimal electronic glitches. His work with Mika Vainio as well as his solo work has continually challenged conventions of what is and what is not musical or artful. In light of the burgeoning "clicks_+_cuts" phenomenon, this Alva Noto release is less of a bandwagon-jumper and more of a veteran stepping up to the challenge once more.

electricity!, 25 May 2000
By Gabriel Lobos - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Prototypes (Audio CD)
german artist and sound sculptor carsten nicolai aka alva noto takes the nowadays fashionable term "minimalism" seriously.in using very limited sets of (electric) sounds/noises (including silence)and by conbining,developping and modifying them he creates spacial textures und colors of astonishing beauty.no one truly interested in elecronic music should miss this.
