"Shards of Distant Times looks at the porous membrane
between past and present while simultaneously tackling the internet as sound.[...] Aldinucci’s sonic detritus reflects shards of
this beautiful wreckage. Perhaps there is hope after all."
A CLOSER LISTEN (USA)
"Ein überwältigendes Album. 8.3"
HHV MAG (D)
"Aldinucci’s
authorial zenith is situated at the oxymoronic crossroads between
formal abstraction and the overflowing vividness of feeling, a balance
that only close contact with their interiority guarantees the most
excellent interpreters to go beyond themselves and sublimate."
ESOTEROS (I)
"Het levert wederom een bij de strot grijpend prachtig
meesterwerk op!"

SONOFMARKETING (I)
"A great journey through fragments of a state of mind
set in this sound work."
EL RUIDO ES EL MENSAJE (AR)
"Shards
Of Distant Times investe letteralmente il corpo anzitutto con voci
trasfigurate ed estese per l’eternitŕ, perché č da qualche Eternitŕ che
provengono."
THE NEW NOISE (I)
"Ferne Zeiten und ungeahnte Erinnerungen, ein
Ambient-Meisterwerk zum laut aufdrehen."
ARTNOIR (CH)
"Melancholie
verpakt in een geniaal sounddesign. Aldinucci bewijst hier nogmaals dat
hij een maestro van de hedendaagse ambient is en deze plaat is dan
ookverplichte kost voor ieder een die zich al eens wentelt in
melancholie."
GONZO CIRCUS (NL)
"Táhlé
melodie sedmi kompozic desky vždy míří do velkých, rezonujících prostor
a zde, v dlouhém echu pomalu plynou prostorem. Shards Of Distant Times
je albem, které může mít různá vyznění. Může působit staromilsky,
rezignovaně, ale také může být bráno jako kolekce, která se snaží v
dnešním Babylonu nacházet pozitivní impulsy do budoucna. Rozhodnutí už
je na samotném posluchači."
UNI KULTURNI MAGAZIN (CZ)
"Sono
pochi i compositori moderni, i sound artist, che sanno tradurre cosě
straordinariamente le tensioni presenti nell'animo di chi non sa
rinunciare all'incanto, Giulio Aldinucci č uno di questi. E' un
prezioso musicista che in tempi cosě bui sa ancora distribuire
salvifica sacralitŕ."
SHERWOOD (I)
"Zijn
elegante stijl die ambient en field recordings combineert kwam volledig
tot zijn recht op de eerder op Karl verschenen albums. Ook Shards Of
Distant Times is wederom een muzikaal meesterwerkje van sublieme
schoonheid en sacrale grootsheid geworden.."
DARKENTRIES
(B)
"Un
ventaglio di intricati loop e decostruiti frammenti vocali conferisce
tratti profondamente umani a una sequenza di paesaggi sonori
aliena(n)ti, che imprimono memorie e immagini di coinvolgente, estatica
bellezza."
