Runtime: 60'00''

«'Exploratório' was the name of a radio show from local radio inside deep Portugal. That program played frequently ambient electronics, leftfield electronica as well as a wide range of experimental stuff. It seems that this piece was one of the last ones that went live before the radio was bought by a big media corporation and then closed down.
'Concret Exploratoire', by Mikroben Krieg (real name Nelson Brites, a portuguese musician), was broadcasted February 03, 2008 and is an hour long experimental ambient piece, where the musician explores a plethora of moods and sounds from beginning to end. Real exploratory stuff.» - Pedro Leitão

Reviews:

«This extended sound journey by Mikroben Krieg (aka Nelson Brites) was apparently first broadcast on some local radio station in Portugal almost two years ago, and is only just now seeing proper Internet release, courtesy of the Test Tube netlabel. Titled Concret Exploratoire, it’s a single track that takes the form of a lengthy CGI sound trip (MP3). While it works as a composition, it works better as an imagined travelogue. It’s through-composed, in that there is little repetition, little sense of melodic or rhythmic development, over the course of the listening. Instead what there is is a series of scenes that make the most of stereo-spatial illusions. Sonar blips, distant rumbles, and close-at-hand sonic textures collude to suggest an environment.»
