«Pitch Boys is my good friend and self-taught musician Nuno Meneses, a Portuguese citizen. It was kind of difficult to make a selection for his first release on test tube, because Nuno has many, many hours of really good unreleased material, ranging from dub to hip hop, from cerebral techno to psy-trance, from dark moods to chillout tracks. That's why it will be the first of a series of releases called 'Random Teleports'. It's pretty random stuff.
This first volume explores seven downbeat instrumental tracks, evolving dark hip-hop moods and one or two of more folkish electronics. This is a great mini-LP. You could almost dance a bit while listening. Fresh and groovy.» - Pedro Leitão |

Reviews:
«Great instrumental sounds of a portuguese musician that is producing at his home some sound pieces that can perfectly and easily enter our day by day soundtrack, because it is a good sound basis for our mind fill with some of our daily things. Sometimes the tracks have rhythm, sometimes have ambient, sometimes they have quiet and deep moments, but always it is great MUSIC.»

«Big up to my friend Nuno, I am sure that if you keep up the good work you will achieve some more recognition and credit for producing quality beats. Random Teleports I is a solid release that I hope will give this artist the chance to show us some more tracks from his extensive repertoire.»

«Mp3 of the week: Fans of Bill Laswell's '90's output and Dj Shadow are urged to explore the bedroom electronica and psychedelic-tinged hip-hop instrumentals of Pitch Boys, the nom de digitale of self-taught sound artist Nuno Meneses. Posted in late July by Test Tube, the recently launched net imprint of Portuguese label mono¨cromatica. Random Teleports I offers seven tracks plus elegant front and back cover art, all free of charge. Another worthy download, the Fennesz-like Peri Sable EP, by Phoebus, is also available on the site.»

«I've listened various tracks from this artist and sure is an original sound with an impressive own touch by Nuno Meneses, I love his work, it sure helps me refresh my mind after a long day at work. Keep it up the good work P.B. ;).»

«Great jazzy chilled-out electronics:
Wow! Genuinely accessible, funky electronics from this new label, with some extremely listenable keyboards, funky drummer action, and all-round goodness.»
