about this album
«Behind the alias :Papercutz is Bruno Pinto, a 25 year old computer engineer, who started getting into electronic music in 1999, with a project called Oxygen, together with friend Nuno Maciel. Bruno has been evolving and learning to work with new tools ever since. While Oxygen was clearly electro-pop oriented, on :Papercutz Bruno reveals itself as a pop song composer, where singing takes an important place on this new work, thanks to the voice of Marisa Pinto and Bruno himself. Impecably produced, the sound ambients on this 5 track EP range from sweet flavored IDM beats to cinematic instrumental piano pieces, giving ocasionally space for some experimentation with static and glitch processing, all wrapped up into a kind of keyboard pop, with a catchy and candid feel, and aestetically very appealing. 'Nighttime at the Playground' could easily be coming from Warp or Morr Music catalogues. Just download it and try not to use 'repeat all' too many times.» - Pedro Leitão -------------- Reviews: «Avec :Papercutz, 'Nighttime at the Playground', peut-être l'un des projets les plus abordables de Test tube. Il s'agit ici d'un ingénieur informaticien de 25 ans, Bruno Pinto, qui est tombé très tôt dans les volutes électroniques. Se déclarant popsongwriter, il s'accompagne de la délicate voix de Marisa Pinto sur quelques morceaux, chantant lui-même. Quelques incursions dans le jazz moderne et le blues expérimental. Très beau projet en tout cas qui mérite une attention assez particulière
