The Wire, October 02, Jerome Maunsell Review:
The third CD in the new Audioshpere series is a 50 minute live recording from a set Schaefer performed in Brussels earlier this year. Though he is still best known for his notorious invention of the three-armed Tri-Phonic Turntable, the self styled sound designer and architect has evidently broadened his repertoire. Most of the audio lansdcapes here don't immediately sound like they were sourced from record decks, although there are plently of queasy, Philioments. The live dynamic is clear - the slow movement through different zones is managed with a neat sense of natural timing. Fogbanks of ethereal drones panned vigorously from speaker to speaker seague into nostalgic, melodic fragments, while playful crackles and vinyl squeals punctuate the passages just when you are drifting off.
