Pedro Inf (Marinha Grande) - alternative music

"Pedro Inf DJ REVIEWS: PEDRO INF

http://www.gothtronic.com/?page=23&reviews=4772

Pedro Inf makes IDM and electronica . Who Pedro Inf exactly is, remains somewhat of a mystery: there are a lot of names on the funnily artworked sleeve, but these are all people who seem to have helped Pedro Inf creating this release (for example the mastering and the artwork). Who Pedro Inf himself actually is, is still not clear to me. On the myspace of Some Bizarre Records I get to read that Pedro Inf makes his music in reaction to the nowadays electronic music scene. And therefore chose to name his music 'sonar paintings'. As examples and influences Coil, Test Department and Richard D. James are named. Especially this last one – you may know him because he is Aphex Twin – I recognize in Pedro's music. And this is mainly recognizable when you think back to Aphex Twins Analords-series and the compilation "Chosen Lords" that accompanied this series. As with Aphex Twin also in Pedro Infs music the structure of the songs is sometimes hard to find, which makes the music harder to listen to. Personally I don't think this is a big minus: a somewhat abstract approach in the electronic music can get my positive attention most of the time, especially when the abstractness is being found in weird sounds and alienating rhythms, in stead of raging and painful noises. And luckily Pedro Inf creates the challenge with clear tones and a well produced sound. There are no real hits or highlights on this album, but maybe this isn't really necessary in this case. Pedro Inf and his 'sonar paintings' know how to please just in the way his examples and influences knew and still know how to. A nice release by Some Bizarre Records."
