There’s a real stagnant nature to Cadu Tenório’s Vozes. Like, purposefully pensive, but just awaiting the drop. As if the entire release were just a man in shorts, hands in his pocket, posed as if he’s waiting for the bus, 10-toes hanging off the end, board completely waxed, and feet of water towering behind him in a wave that could end his life in a blink. We’re all just waiting for it all to crash down, both in Cadu Tenório’s Vozes and life in general. So there’s no differentiating from the two, no? Untrue!!!
Cadu Tenório has done it, “Bebê” is here in full-force, all the videos are in, and it’s time to decipher what’s happening within all these videos for Vozes. The meaning is SO hidden in sound and fucked visuals that negating a fluid story-line would be too tossed-off. Even suggesting these videos have “characters” would be an interesting project to follow through on and figure out.
Similar to Nick James, Cadu Tenório draws from a post-ecco environment of minimally direct implementation of samples and sonics that sound equally accidental as they could-be/are intentional. And I cannot be mistaken, as the videos for Vozes throughout have been exactly that: was this someone’s favorite anime compilation of sex, drugs, and violence that was washed through filters and edit-wipes on the PC, or completely orchestrated to look as if it’s always seering into my consciousness?
