Music by Cory O'Brien, going by the name of Myo, has been reviewed
before: 'Process' was a CDR release by MT6 Records. Here he offers
a free download release, of two live pieces and three studio pieces,
although I must admit there is not much difference in studio and
live for him. O'Brien uses various pieces of free software along
with field recordings of power hum, other static electricity,
plexiglass and dry ice to record his own brand of noise meeting
microsound. Unlike the Russell release (see elsewhere), O'Brien's
music is more from the world of noise than from the microsound,
an influence that seems to be almost gone here. The end result
is certainly nice. Quite loud and noise based, but also more thought
out and constructed than the average noise musician. The dry ice
sounds nice, placed under pressure of feedback and transformed
using various pieces of software. Things work best for me when
he keep things under control, as in the first three pieces - when
he walks the finer line between silence and loudness. The final
two pieces dwell more on the loud part and were less interesting,
but throughout this is the noise that I like. (FdW) ~ Vital Weekly

Reviewer: HzCollective - - December 12, 2007
Subject: very nice
This is a really good representation, from what i know of Myo's work, of what he's been working towards. Very meditative, free improvisation in electro acoustic processing. The sound quality on this release is amazingly lush and full of colour. The compositions seem very intent with a lot of care in letting the objects that are being processed breathe. The natural sounds peeking thru the lush soundscape create a very vivid dreamlike three dimentional visual that abstractly leaves me nostalgic for something not quite certain.
