Review by Variz Apr 18, 2005 (edited over 4 years ago)
Experimentalist Migso encompasses a narrative journey layered with celestial melodies and sensuous synth lines that fall into deep hypnotic patterns. Like in most Portuguese art there's a poetic aura around his digital compositions and conceptual projects. With a bleep and beep here and a crackle there you will always find Migso's work moving in capricious ways, as it catches you by surprise again and again.
