"Part of the beauty of Curd Duca’s album lies in the fact that it opens up from so many perspectives. Situated somewhere between pop and avantgarde, it can be seen as a collection of treasures, a commentary on our acoustic environment, as an attempt to dissect the world and to stylize its parts. Some pieces are exaggerations. Some allusions. Others abstractions, parodies, and transfigurations. It is often not so clear if the music is based on a sample or a synthetic sound. This music should not be trivialized or underestimated. With Waves, Duca is exploring the essence of sound, in various layers of meaning." - Björn Gottstein, Donaueschingen Music Festival
"Love the Iron Butterfly nod on "cassette"; Brief sound explorations, possible sample library cast offs, beautiful short gusts of wind on a hillside. Seemingly random but the mind with time makes sense of most things." - Bandcamp comment
"This series was our favorite late night listen in the dark. Of course the skunk opened our ears, but it really is the sharpest sound art bits you'll hear in a long time." - Bandcamp comment
